I read the book. It was far to ‘sniffy’ to watch as a movie.
Nicholas Sparks tends to use “Tragedy Ambush” (to coin a term) and his books are great until the last chapter and then I wish I’d never read them.
I know my mama and I were crying our eyes out! I was red all over from holding my breath and trying not to cry bit it was a really sweet movie! Love it!
It isn’t the best movie ever if your grandmother was going through the same thing. There is no way I can watch that movie without getting completely depressed. Sure, it’s lovely and romantic, but when that happens in real life, it is by far the most depressing thing you’ll ever go through.
I watched the movie and read the book. I liked the movie but I think I like the book a lot better. They both made me cry. Nicholas Sparks is a great author, i’ve read his other novels as well.
@LouisianaGirl I saw it in theater with a girlfriend. dragonfly warned me ahead of time to take tissues. I cried from the dnace they had in the nursing home untill way after the credits finished, and all the way into the ladies room afterward!! WAHHHH!!!
The only other movie that can do that to me every time is Steele Magnolias ( the graveyard scene) I love how it makes me cry and then laugh hysterically.. what a roller coaster ride!!
@miasmom After I saw that movie and hearing that all of the ending are sad I might pass but who knows I might I will check into getting A Walk To Remember
