dröm och tro

Ok, 現在我來寫第二本剛買的新書。

《The Notebook》，這是Nicholas Sparks在1996年出版的一本fiction，而電影卻在2004年的時候才上映。Nicholas Sparks擅長寫愛情故事，而這些愛情故事也很容易讓人掉眼淚，尤其當你看了電影后，這些愛情故事的情節人物便會深深的烙在腦海里。

基本上他寫的書里面，有幾本已經拍成電影了。譬如：

A walk to remember

The notebook

Message in the bottle

Dear John

The last song

還有

Nights in Rodanthe

說回The Notebook，書后面的情節大綱：

North Carolina, October 1946. Noah Calhoun has recently returned from war: he tries to forget the horrors he has seen and experienced by restoring an old plantation home. But thought his days are spent working; his nights too often give way to dreams of his past.

14 years ago Noah fell in love with a girl, and he is still haunted by her memory but convinced he will never find her again. But when the past slips into the present, Noah realizes his ghosts are never far away.

電影的The Notebook演員其實是我很喜歡的Rachel McAdams（就是之前在The Time Traveler’s Wife 里面的那個Clare；或Mean Girl里面的Plastic組合中的Regina George）。電影和小說的結局都不一樣，和The Time Traveler’s Wife 一樣。

小說中，只有Allie離開（去世）。

電影中，Noah和Allie抱在一起離開人間。 

Hi.

Noah. Noah.

Hi, sweetheart. I'm sorry I haven't been able to be here to read to you.

I didn't know what to do.

I was afraid you were never coming back.

I'll always come back.

What's gonna happen when I can't remember anything anymore?

What will you do?

I'll be here.

I'll never leave you.

I need to ask you something.

What is it, sweetheart?

Do you think that our love can create miracles?

Yes, I do.

That's what brings you back to me each time.

Do you think our love could take us away together?

I think our love can do anything we want it to.

I love you.

I love you, Allie.

但是我希望的結局卻是……最好沒有人離開。
