A Walk to Remember is such a touching movie and I love it so much. There is a boy named Landon Carter who is a "typical bad boy", I guess you could say. Then there is Jamie Sullivan, one of the sweetest people in Beaufort. He has known Jamie Sullivan since he was little and has always picked on her, especially since her father was a preacher. Landon gets into some trouble and is forced by the principal to play in the school play, which Jamie happens to be the star of. He starts spending time with her and develops feelings for her. Jamie's father, Hegbert, does not approve of Landon and thinks that he is reckless and nothing but trouble. Jamie starts to develop feelings for Landon as well and they soon start dating. Jamie opens Landon's eyes. He says that she saved him. He became such a better person after spending time with her. What Landon doesn't know is that Jamie has leukemia. She didn't want to tell anyone, but she finally decided to tell Landon since she fell in love with him. Her cancer was getting worse and she had stopped responding to treatments about two years ago. Landon is heartbroken when he finds out. One of Jamie's biggest dreams is to get married in the Church that her mother grew up in. Landon makes this dream come true. He asks her to marry him and she says yes. They got to spend the summer together before Jamie passed away from her leukemia.
No matter what happened in Jamie's life, she ALWAYS kept her faith. It didn't matter that people picked on her all of the time, it didn't matter that she had cancer, she never gave up on her faith. That is one of the main reasons that I like this movie. It teaches us that if somebody like that can keep faith, then why shouldn't we? Jamie really did save Landon Carter's life. Because of her, he learned to have faith.
This is a picture of Landon and Jamie in the play. It is important because this is when they started to have feelings for each other. If they wouldn't have done the play together, then they wouldn't have got to spend so much time together like they did and fall in love.
I would rate this movie a nine. This is one of my favorite movies, but I really wish that Jamie hadn't of died.I can't think of any way that this movie could be improved. Again, I really wish that Jamie wouldn't have died, but it would've most likely happened in real life anyways. Other than that, I loved everything about this movie. I love the actors in it and I love the story line of it. I also love the fact that it was filmed in Beaufort, North Carolina. This movie teaches you that no matter how hard life can get at times, you should always keep your faith.
