Fans of “The Notebook” hit movie theaters everywhere to see another one of Nicholas Sparks’ book-to-movie triumphs, “Dear John.”

The movie’s cast included stars Channing Tatum, Amanda Seyfried and “Step Brothers” cast member, Richard Jenkins.

This heartfelt romantic film deals with the trials and tribulations of a relationship burdened by war. In the film, Tatum’s character, John Tyree, is a member of the Armed Special Forces and is separated from his girlfriend, of only two weeks, Savannah Curtis. Though they have only been together for a short time, the two quickly fall in love. Once Tyree goes back to the army after his two-week leave, the couple is forced to communicate through detailed letters of the accounts of one another’s lives.

“I really liked this movie,” Deanna Kuchinski, Neumann University Class of 2012, said. “I did think it could have been a little more emotional, but I love the actors and they really did a good job.”

“Dear John,” the book, was written by Nicholas Sparks, the screenplay for the movie was written by Jamie Linden and was directed by Lasse Hallstr
