This movie is one of my favourite old movies. I don't know why, but I can watch it over and over again. It's so unique and unpredictable.It's about a boy from the popular but troubled undirected group of students who fell in love with the reverend's daughter who has great ambitions and nothing in common with him. Well, at first I thought it was pretty predictable. But I was wrong, it's totally unpredictable. Jamie had terminal leukemia and she had stopped responding to treatments.
I really like when Landon discovered that Jamie had a wish list, and he set out to help her accomplish them. He brought Jamie to the state line, because Jamie said that she wanted to be in two different places at a time. He also built a telescope for Jamie so that she can see the hyakutake comet, and more.
Jamie's cancer got worse but Landon didn't leave Jamie's side until her father practically had to pry him away. Anyway, the movie ended with Jamie's death, but only after she got married with Landon in the same chapel as was Jamie's deceased mother, the event that topped Jamie's wish list. Landon himself became a better person through Jamie's memory, achieving the goals that he set out to do, like she did.
And I really like this quote from this movie:
"Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends" (Corinthians 13:4-8)
