The Nicholas Sparks tear-jerker The Notebook has some great old houses to look at: Allie's, Noah's, and the old plantation house that served as the nursing home.
Located on 204 Martins Point Road in real life Wadmalaw Island, South Carolina, this gorgeous 5-bedroom, 4.5 bathroom estate spans 4,255 square feet.
So, imagine the Internet's collective surprise to find out that in the version of The Notebook currently playing on U.K. Netflix, the ending has somehow been changed. The original ends with Allie (Gena Rowlands/Rachel McAdams) becoming lucid after Noah (James Garner/Ryan Gosling) reads her the story of their lives.
Based on the Nicholas Sparks novel, the movie was filmed throughout the inspiring location of Charleston, South Carolina. While the stunning house Noah built for Allie is private property, you can still visit many of the sites featured in the beloved film.
It's been a decade since Noah Calhoun and Allie Hamilton, played by Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams, found a love “that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more,” Duke (the nickname the older Noah goes by, so as not to scare the older Allie, who is now suffering from Alzheimer's) says.
There is no mention of them committing suicide. The whole premise of the end of the film is that Allie remembered everything and that she and Noah died together at the same time because their love was so strong. They didn't commit suicide and there was no medical problem, it was just a miracle.

I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you've ever been, someone kicked you even lower?" Mayer also called "Dear John" "cheap songwriting." "I will say as a songwriter that I think it's kind of cheap songwriting," Mayer said.
another. One thing we both agreed on: This movie is so so sad. At first, Dear John seems like a love story that mimics the themes that made us all (or just me) fall for The Notebook: love, regret, heartbreak and soul-mates. Cliche-yet-adorable scenes of young love ensue.
7. While audiences loved the film's hopeful ending, Dear John had a different ending just days before its release that was faithful to the book's ending (spoiler alert: John and Savannah do not end up together on the page).

"But we weren't really as involved as I thought. So I got my heart broken pretty hard." And though the pair did eventually get back together, Amanda said that the makeup-breakup drama has taken its toll since then: "After that, it's really hard to open myself up to a new person. Really hard."
Tim: Tim is Savannah's best friend. He lives with his autistic younger brother, whom he takes care of. Tim is quiet and thoughtful, and becomes friends with John during the two weeks he and Savannah spend together. Tim ends up marrying Savannah while John is away at war.
On his next leave SPOILER! John's dad dies and they barely get to spend anytime together and Savannah ends their relationship as John returns to the military once again. One theme of this story is that sometimes you have to do something for yourself.
He receives a letter from Savannah telling him that Tim died after two months and ending with "I'll see you soon, then." Later, John—now a civilian again—coincidentally sees Savannah at a coffee shop and they hug.
