The Notebook

This film proves that good actors can save a poor story that's poorly made thanks to their talents. In this case all the credit should go to Ryan Gosling, Rachel McAdams and Gena Rowlands amongst others to make this sentimental tearjerker work. The story is nothing new about poor boy falling for rich girl before losing her and finding each other years later. Without the actors who are well cast, the film would be a total disaster. Director Nick Cassavetes never found his voice as a director except maybe for the casting of good actors including his legendary mother who can do no wrong, no matter what. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
