The movie focuses on an old man reading a story to an old woman in a nursing home. The story he reads follows two young lovers named Allie Hamilton and Noah Calhoun, who meet one evening at a carnival. But they are separated by Allie's parents who disapprove of Noah's unwealthy family, and move Allie away. After waiting for Noah to write her for several years, Allie meets and gets engaged to a handsome young soldier named Lon. Allie, then, with her love for Noah still alive, stops by Noah's 200-year-old home that he restored for her, "to see if he's okay". It is evident that they still have feelings for each other, and Allie has to choose between her fiancé and her first love.
A very old film which I happened to stumble upon today. It moved me to tears at the end. The love that the husband had for his wife with both dying peacefully together in the end.
" The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more.
That plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds "
