While spending spring break in Florida, Rory (Alexis Bledel) and Paris (Liza Weil) are unexpectedly reunited with their former Chilton classmates Louise Grant (Teal Redmann) and Madeline Lynn (Shelley Cole), both seasoned veterans of the traditional student bash. Back in chilly Stars Hollow, Jason (Christopher Eigeman) surprises Lorelai (Lauren Graham) with a token of his affection, even as Luke (Scott Patterson) is in sight of a final breakup with Nicole. But it's not a friendly breakup -- "breakup" being literally the case when Luke takes revenge upon Nicole's newest sweetie and ends up in jail as a result. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Directed by Nick Cassavetes, this adaptation of author Nicholas Sparks' bestselling novel revolves around Noah Calhoun's (James Garner) regular visits to a female patron (Gena Rowlands) of an area nursing home. Rather than bore her with the inanities of everyday life, Calhoun reads from an old, faded notebook containing the sweeping account of a young couple (Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams) whose love affair was tragically put to a halt after their separation in the midst of World War II. Seven years later, the couple was reunited, and, despite having taken radically different paths, they found themselves unable to resist the call of a second chance. The Notebook also features Joan Allen, Sam Shepard, and Kevin Connolly. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
