SYNOPSIS

Directed by Lasse Hallström and based on the novel by best-selling author Nicholas Sparks, DEAR JOHN tells the story of John Tyree (Channing Tatum), a young soldier home on leave, and Savannah Curtis (Amanda Seyfried), the idealistic college student he falls in love with during her spring vacation.  Over the next seven tumultuous years, the couple is separated by John’s increasingly dangerous deployments.  While meeting only sporadically, they stay in touch by sending a continuous stream of love letters overseas–correspondence that eventually triggers fateful consequences.

    I would have to say my favorite movie was by far The Notebook. Also, I hate to admit it, but I kind of want to see the one coming out with Miley Cyrus. And, I love Amanda Seyfried so I’m sort of looking forward to seeing this film!

  2. Lynn says

    It almost pains me to admit it, but I’ll have to agree that The Notebook is awesome. My ex got me to watch and I cried like there was no more cake in the world.

    That’s a tough 1, but if I have to choose it would be “Nights In Rodante” Richard Gere always has the perfect charisma in movies. This movie was sadder than I anticipated but nonetheless I loved it!.

    The Notebook was awesome and emotional. It affected me deeply. I left the theater saying, “I am going to own this movie on DVD”. I ‘ve probably watched it over a dozen times.
