The Notebook 2: Rewritten

As far as love goes, if certain celebrity couples can't keep it together, what hope is there for the rest of us normals on Planet Reality? For me, the perfect celeb couples went like so:
  • Reese Witherspoon & Ryan Phillippe
  • Britney & Justin
  • Jennifer & Brad
  • Rachel McAdams & Ryan Gosling

The list seemed perfect, much like the relationships themselves, all Colgate-smiles, album collaborations, nauseating nicknames. But somewhere along the Hollywood Walk of Fame it all went wrong. Britney cheated. Ryan had a mid-life. Brad went over to the dark side and Rachel and Ryan just...they just called time. The love-story that was their post-Notebook romance appeared to fizzle out last year, with Ryan telling GQ mag: “I mean, God bless The Notebook. It introduced me to one of the great loves of my life. But people do Rachel and me a disservice by assuming we were anything like the people in that movie. Rachel and my love story is a hell of a lot more romantic than that.”


Are you melting yet? Well melt some more, because The Notebook has just come to life, in a deluxe collector's edition cut. The two have reunited and given us a scene of loved-up bliss that makes me wish my boyfriend and I had starred in a Romantic Drama together. So, no longer do I have to watch my Notebook DVD for scenes of two of the cutest Hollywood stars totally head-over-heels in love.

If you're a bird, I'm a bird.
