wtf . do any of his book or movie end in a happy end . the notebook be good . but sheesh and enough with the depressing ending already . i be told that he write about realistic situation that people deal with in real life . understandable . but sometimes it nice to see people who have sacrifice their whole life to only get to a mediocre unhappy time in their life to finally find the true meaning of happiness and be able to live it out for the rest of their day . don not we already know what really happen in real life . can not we for one moment ( an hour and a half ) live vicariously through a movie that end on a happy note that give u hope for our own future . yeah wah . i know . but for real and i think we need to preface movie that end like this one with a warning . beware represent no happy end .
