Based on the acclaimed best-selling novel by Nicholas Sparks (A Walk To Remember, Message in a Bottle), the hit romantic drama The Notebook arrives on a Platinum Series DVD from New Line Home Entertainment on February 8.
This touching, nostalgic story of true love and destiny stars breakout talents Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls) and features an ensemble of Academy Award-nominated co-stars including James Garner, Gena Rowlands, Sam Shepherd and Joan Allen as well as James Marsden (the “X-Men” films).
Directed by Nick Cassavetes (John Q.), The Notebook will offer deleted scenes, four in-depth featurettes, Rachel McAdams’ screen test, separate commentaries from the director and novelist Nicholas Sparks, as well as a DVD-ROM enabled script-to-screen program and more. The Notebook will be available for rental on Platinum Series(TM) DVD and VHS, and for sale on Platinum Series(TM) DVD at the suggested retail price of $27.95.
As teenagers, Allie (McAdams) and Noah (Gosling) begin a whirlwind courtship that soon blossoms into tender intimacy. The young couple is quickly separated by Allie’s upper-class parents who insist that Noah isn’t right for her. Several years pass, and, when they meet again, their passion is rekindled, forcing Allie to choose between her soul mate and class order. This beautiful tale has a particularly special meaning to an older gentleman (Garner) who regularly reads the timeless love story to his aging companion (Rowlands).
