THE NOTEBOOK
You’re lying if you say you haven’t cried to this one.
Noah Calhoun is a mill worker from South Caroline who meets rich girl Allie (Rachel McAdams) and the two quickly fall in love but her rich (and in my opinion unreasonable) parents do not approve of the romance.
The two split when Noah heads off to serve in World War II, and despite writing Allie 365 love letters, Allie becomes involved with another man . When the two meet again just before Allies wedding with her new man, the pair prove their romance is anything but over.
