The Notebook - This is an image of the movie 'The Notebook' starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. The movie was an adaptation of the novel 'The Notebook' by Nicholas Sparks. I've seen the movie and read the novel, too. Though there are some differences, but i don't see it as a flaw. It is quite natural that movies are sometimed more compact in the details than in the novels, where u need to expand the story. Nonetheless, the movie gives a great conviction and applause despite the difference and changes. It's still a tearjerking movie and I am convinced.
