A Walk to Remember is a sincere love story that will capture your heart. The romance in the movie is between two 18 year old high school students, Jaime is quiet, shy, and doesn’t believe that anyone wants to be her friend, played by Mandy Moore. This young lady that puts all her time into school and her faith, Jaime was shockingly surprised when Landon one of the more popular boys was put into her drama class, played by Shane West. Landon was put into drama class to meet new people according to the high school, he was getting himself into trouble with the popular crowed that he spent time with. Landon was involved in a dare that left he’s friend paralyzed, also he was part of the harassment that Jaime got every day in school for the way she dressed and acted. When Jaime and Landon were forced to spend time together in drama club, Landon found out a little bit about himself that he might not have known before. The movie goes on to show the growing romance between Landon and Jaime and all the interesting challenges that they face, when Jaime drops a bombshell about something she keeps very secret it sets the movie for a curve. A Walk to Remember is a true love story, and shows what you will do for someone if you really love them. I agree with other reviews that the movie has it corny scenes, but the corniness evokes a lot of the emotions and feelings that you get from the movie. I disagree with some of the reviews that state the scene where Landon’s friend gets paralyzed should be taken out, because I believe that incident is what makes Landon change and become who he is around and with Jamie. A Walk to Remember starts out like a normal teenage life and high school, and spins into a remarkable love story; this movie is worth the time and effort.
