This is a story about first love and growing old together. Noah, the hero, fell in love with Ellie who laughed at the bumper car at first sight. Noah always followed his heart. "Generally speaking, I will fall in love with whatever I like." This is his bold confession to Ellie. On the deserted road in the middle of the night, the traffic lights witnessed the germination of their love, and in the following summer, they were inseparable. When Noah got off work, Ellie threw herself into his arms and kissed him. He took her diving, boating and cycling ... With Noah, Ellie was free and happy, and the more they loved each other, the more they could not extricate themselves.
He told her that his dream was to buy the dilapidated Windsor Manor and transform it. Ellie, tell him I want a say in your house, too. I want to draw by the window facing the lake, ok? Noah smiled. "all right." He didn't know that this house would exert a strange power to bring Ellie back to him after many years.
However, the love between poor boys and rich girls will always be blocked by various means. For example, Ellie's mother's "garbage" deeply hurt Noah's self-esteem. Yes, Ellie will continue to go to college and become successful, and she is just an ordinary lumberjack in a small town. Although he doesn't spend much, his salary of 40 cents an hour is enough to live. He believes that he can give his beloved girl a happy life, but a man's self-esteem and uneasy mood. Impatient Ellie thought he would give up on her and slapped him with heartache. He is so incompetent that she slaps herself with Ellie's face (I can't help but think that a good man is like this, no matter what, he won't blame his beloved, and he will only blame himself when he sees his beloved sad). He let him roll angrily and he started driving. Ellie cried and told him not to go, and they would make up as soon as possible.
But they don't know that the difference is seven years. The next day, Ellie's mother took her out of town. Ellie rushed to the logging yard, but Noah wasn't there. However, he wrote letter after letter, but there was no reply. After writing the 365th letter, he is ready to clear his mind, go out to work and start over. When World War II broke out, he joined the army, experienced where he went with his friends, and retired home. With the help of my father, I bought this house. He wants to fulfill his promise to her, and he believes that as long as the house is built, she will come back to her.
Seven years later, when she was trying on a wedding dress, she saw him take a photo with the newly renovated Windsor Manor and fainted. Then I came to the manor. I want to end the relationship that was forcibly interrupted seven years ago, but I haven't thought about it. I can't be separated anymore. It turns out that everything is not over. "It's all over." In the heavy rain, Noah couldn't control himself any longer, held her in his arms, kissed and made love, trying to make up for everything he had lost in the past seven years.
Mom is here, and so is her fiance. This is a difficult choice, Ellie is not sure. She should go back and get married. Her fiance is rich and rich, which is a perfect match for her. But Noah has been buried in her heart and has never left. For her fiance, Ellie is the one he loves, and he will love others in the future, but for Noah, Ellie is all he has.
Noah stopped her car door because he knew that after letting her go, both of them would regret it for the rest of their lives. He asked her, "Don't think about others, don't think about your mother, and don't think about me. Ask yourself what you want and what kind of life you hope to live in 20 or 30 years. "
She was so depressed that she almost ran into an oncoming truck. This kind of stimulation made her understand that life is so fragile and impermanent that she should bravely follow her heart. She looked through Noah's letters around her, and it turned out that Noah was so mature seven years ago.
"Dearest Ellie:
I don't know what I'm talking about. Last night, I couldn't sleep because I knew it was over between us. This is a strange feeling for me, which I never expected. But looking back, I don't think things will have a different ending.
You are different from me. We come from different worlds. However, you taught me the true meaning of love. You let me know what it's like to like someone, so I'm better than before. I hope you will never forget this.
I don't complain about what happened. On the contrary, I am deeply gratified to know that what we have experienced is true, and I feel happy because we can be together, even for a short time. If we meet in a new life in a distant place in the future, I will smile at you with joy and recall how we spent a summer under the tree, and gradually get to know each other and fall in love. Maybe, in a flash.
I love you, Ellie.

She went back and told her fiance everything. This retired rich second generation is definitely a rare gentleman. "I have three choices: I shoot him, I drive him away and let you stay with me, I leave you, but in either case, I can't get you." (If Ali meets her fiance first, it is estimated that Noah will be fine. Life, the order of appearance is too important. )
Noah collapsed in bed. He doesn't know whether Ellie will come back to him. He felt so helpless for the first time. The car outside rang, and she left her suitcase and ran to his arms like seven years ago.
The old man slowly told their stories in the notebook, and the old lady across the street was fascinated. Although she has lost her memory, why does she feel so familiar?
The title page of the notebook reads: "Our story, give my love, Noah, read it to me and I will come back to you. -Ellie "
After the movie, the protagonist is too affectionate. This kind of love has a surrealism. Noah is a perfect man, handsome (his eyes are killing people every minute), brave (he dares to hang one hand on the high Ferris wheel in order to meet his beloved girl), free (this spirit of freedom makes Ellie fall in love with him), romantic (he will put flowers on his sleeping lover's pillow in the morning) and affectionate (even though he knows that his beloved has a new one). In a well-decorated house, there is a room. I think Noah belongs to the kind of person who has the ability and no ambition. He is very clever, but he prefers to live a quiet life as he pleases. The film skips the daily necessities of Noah and Ellie's marriage, but this surreal love is probably the true face of love. It's just that there are too many fetters and fetters in reality, which makes such pure love more precious.
The whole movie, I was most impressed by two things:
The first is about self-confidence. On their first date, Noah and Ellie were lying at the traffic lights. Ellie asked Noah, "What if the car comes?" Noah replied, "You have to believe in yourself. All you have to do is believe in yourself. " . I finally know where Noah's awesome self-confidence comes from. I finally know why he dared to hang on the Ferris wheel and let Ellie date him. I finally know that when Ellie returned to their Windsor Manor seven years later, he knew, "I will never let Ellie leave this time." He believes in himself, unconditionally, and believes that he will give Ellie a happy life. So even a poor boy will not feel inferior in front of Ellie, but will be counted in front of Ellie's parents.
The second one is about quarreling. Every couple and husband and wife will quarrel, and some people will break up and leave after quarreling. When Noah and Ellie quarrel, Ellie will yell at Noah and even slap in the face when she is angry. How can I have such a good boyfriend? But Noah will always try to hold her tight in the next second. He said, "We will quarrel, but we are not afraid of hurting each other." . Because they know that even if they quarrel, they will not leave each other. Quarrel is just a part of life and an inevitable part. I can't help applauding Noah again here, because Noah usually takes the initiative to make up after quarreling. In this man's mind, love is more important than the so-called face, which is probably the reason why they can grow old with nothing.
Just like Stephanie sang-I miss the urge to hug you after quarreling.
Notebook is really a love textbook, which teaches us what is arbitrary, what is self-confidence, what is persistence, what is commitment, what is tolerance, and of course what is love.
As Noah said at the beginning of the film, "I am ordinary, and no one has written a book to praise me, but I am more successful than anyone else, and that is to love someone wholeheartedly for a lifetime."
