We were invited as media to attend the movie screening. All opinions are mine alone.
The Notebook is my favorite movie, ever. So of course The Best of Me is a film I just had to see. Nate and I had the opportunity to attend an early screening of the movie this week. It was a well overdue date night, and what better fit than a love story for hubby and I to watch on the big screen.
About The Best of Me Film:
Based on the bestselling novel by acclaimed author Nicholas Sparks, The Best of Me tells the story of Dawson and Amanda, two former high school sweethearts who find themselves reunited after 20 years apart, when they return to their small town for the funeral of a beloved friend. Their bittersweet reunion reignites the love they’ve never forgotten, but soon they discover the forces that drove them apart twenty years ago live on, posing even more serious threats today. Spanning decades, this epic love story captures the enduring power of our first true love, and the wrenching choices we face when confronted with elusive second chances. It stars James Marsden, Michelle Monaghan, Luke Bracey and Liana Liberato.

What genre of movie is your favorite?
Liz Mays says
Coming of age movies are my favorite, but I also love psychological thrillers. However, I’ll see this because a sappy love story is always good.

I wish I could remember if I’ve read this book. I’ve read so many of Nicholas Sparks’ books. I really like his writing!

I may have to sneak away alone to go see this one! Although my husband owes me a chick flick…I doubt I could get him to go to this one.

This sound like such a good movie. I didn’t get to see the movie in theaters but am going to get it on dvd. I love Nicholas Sparks books and movies.
