I finally saw it...

anyone i've asked about the movie: the notebook, has said it's amazing, great, so good etc. well i finally saw it this morning while working. it won me over from the start because the main story takes place in the 1940's and i'm very partial to that cultural time with big swing bands! and dancing dancing dancing and the dresses! love that. men that can lead you around on the dance floor, push and twirl you around mmm.

it's an incredible story, i didn't expect that, i had no idea what the movie would be about and i think it is now one of my favorites. it's inspiring, the love he had for her, to stay with her through her dimensia, how after years of love and life together she couldn't recognize him but for brief moments she would remember who she was, who he was and then all of a sudden he'd be a stranger again. his love amazed me. love is a choice. a choice to be self-less.

the dresses!
are the best part of that movie, among other parts, like at the end when he says,
"That's what we do, we fight!"
oh so good.
