I watched a film "Dear John", which came out in 2010. In this film the main actors are Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried, who play two lovers, separated by war and facing great issues.
Shortly, the film talks about John and Savannah who meet by accident and immediately fall in love. They spend two wonderful weeks together, but it all comes to an end when John has to leave on duty to the military. They decide to exchange letters to each other while John is away. After a while they start having issues with their long-distance relationship. John has to stay away longer than expected and Savannah starts having problems in her home town. Suddenly the letters stop coming. John then recives a "Dear John" letter informing him about the fact that Savannah is engaged to another man, because their relationship with John didn't seem to work out. When John finally arrives home, he finds out that his father is in hospital. John becomes sad and depressed. On top of everything, John meets Savannah and discovers that she is married to his friend Tim. He also finds out that Tim has cancer and needs extensive care. After a couple of years John and Savannah accidentally meet again. By then, Tim is already dead and his autistic son has grown up, not needing Savannah's care. Nothing can interfere with their love now and they can live together happily ever after.
This is a very lovely and romantic film, which talks about true love, the complications of being in a relationship and life's difficulties. I really like these actors and I enjoyed watching this film. There are enough romantic moments and interesting subject matter, which makes the plot very interesting for me. However, I would say that the film ended too suddenly. The ending was unclear and too much was left to be answered. I would have really liked to know what happened to John and Savannah after they met again at the end of the movie and I think it would have made the film much more enjoyable. At times this film was a bit too sad for me. It was so depressing when John and Savannah met again and Savannah was married to Tim. Everyone knew that John and Savannah were made for each other, but they still couldn't be together. At the end of the film I cried.
I would recommend Dear John to everyone who enjoy romantic dramas, because it is a really cute love story with great actors and an interesting plot. All of my female friends who have seen this film also love it, but I think men would also find it interesting.
Wednesday 26 January 2011
During our last week's English lessons we watched "Dear John". It is a movie about love.
The main characters John and Savannah meet during their spring break. They fall in love almost immediately. After being together for two weeks, John has to go back to the army and Savannah back to school. They begin a long-distance relationship through letters. Even though John has planned on leaving the army, the September 11 attacks conflict him, and soon he decides to re-enlist. Over the next two years, John and Savannah correspond through letters. Ultimately, Savannah sends John a letter informing him that she has become engaged to someone else. Soon John is shot by the enemy. After some time he is informed that his father has had a stroke. He returns home. He writes a letter to his father and afterwards reads it to him in hospital, in order to let him know how very thankful he is. He finds out that Savannah is married to Tim and that Tim has cancer. He helps Tim by donating him money for his therapy. At the end John and Savannah still love each other, but they are not yet together. Fortunately, the ending gives us reason to think that they soon will be.
I think that this movie is really good, it's not a typical love story and I like it. The general idea is interesting and because it's different, you don't know for sure what will happen at the end. It's abstemiously sad, but there are also good things in the film. The music is really good, exactly on topic and suits the film perfectly. I like John's character - he's sensitive, but not too much. He knows what to say and how to be. He's not perfect like the characters in these movies usually are. The movie is really enthralling and it's always nice to watch true love.
I would recommend it to people who like to watch movies that actually have something to say but not something too serious. Basically, I think it suits best for youngsters at our age and also for lovers who always like to watch movies about true love.

"Dear John" is a film about a soldier and a college student who fall in love. Though they love each other, there are factors that prevent them from being together.
John Tyree is a is a soldier in the USA Army. He is on a leave for two weeks and during that time he meets Savannah, who is a college student. They soon fall in love. Savannah meets John's father, who has an obsession with coins. She thinks he might have autism like her neighbour's son. This upsets John, whose relationship with his father is quite distant. The two have an argument and John loses his temper. He hits Savannah's neighbour Tim and later apologiseses to both of them. Savannah and John spend their last day together and John leaves for the Army. They begin a long distance relatisonship trough writing letters.
After the 9/11 attack, John chooses to stay in the army longer than he has promised to Savannah. After two more years of writing letters Savannah sends one saying she has got engaged. This upsets John and he burns all of her letters. After another four years John returns home to his dying father. He meets Savannah again and discovers that she has got married to Tim, who has cancer. While John visits Tim in hospital Tim says Savannah still loves him. After dinner with Savannah, John returns to the Army. He also makes a donation that helps Tim's treatment. John gets a letter from Savannah after five years and she tells him what has been going on. The film ends with Savannah and John meeting once again.
I like the movie because of the characters. John is a rather distant person while Savannah is cheerful and optimistic. Their problems don't come from the difference between their characters but the long distance between them. That forces them to make choices and that is what makes the film interesting for me. The relationship that started out simple turns into a complicated one. Their nature is shown through the choices they make rather than how they act. I think that this is what sets this film apart from others. All of it looks simple but if you look closer you see the depth behind it.
I recommend this movie toeveryone who likes serious films.
Dear John tells a story of an American soldier, who falls in love with a student he meets by accident. They don't have much time to be together but that is enough to fall in love with each other. John re-signs due to the 9/11 attack and he is away from his beloved woman for a year. They write each other letters which keep them still together until John goes away for another year and Savannah's love for him starts to fade. Meanwhile, Savannah goes to school and sometimes visits John's dad, who, according to Savannah, is suffering from mild autism. And John is serving in the army, where he gets shot with three bullets in his body. Savannah gets tired of waiting, and she starts to live her life without John. By the time John gets back, she is already engaged to Tim. John re-signs again because he no longer thinks that their relationship will ever work. They stay apart for years and eventually they meet again after living their own lives for a long time. And the real ending of the film is in your imagination because film ends when they meet again in a cafe.
I usually don't bother watching romantic drama films because I'm more into comedy or action films but Dear John is my favourite romantic film next to Pearl Harbour. This film really encouraged me to watch more drama films.
The most I like about this film is the actors. I wouldn't imagine any other actors to star in this movie. For example, Jim Carrey or Steve Carrel would have made this film a comedy one. John and Savannah together give this romantic feeling that you really need to watch a romantic drama film. Also, that little Blonde kid who has autism plays his character just perfectly. I'm not good at judging dramas because I don't watch them much but for me it is a new and good experience and the actors won my heart in this film.
I also like the story of the film. It is rather educating and eye-opening for me. I learned a few things from this film. For example, people can stay together even after a year apart from each other when love is strong. I also learned that after watching a romantic drama film, I get the feeling that life isn't so sad at all, but at the same time I get this thoughtful feeling, which makes me think a lot about the problems they have in this movie. I also like that John is a soldier in this movie because it makes his character a bit silent and also thoughtful, which suits a strong soldier very well.
The best scene in this movie for me, is the place where John gets into a fight with some of Savannah's firiends and where he shows his skills that he has learned in the army. As I said I really like action films too, that's why it was the most interesting scene for me to watch.
I would recommend this film most probably to people like me, who are strangers to romantic films and who would like to get a new and great experience in this type of film genre.
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Michelle Seyfried was born in Allentown, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania on December 3, 1985. She began her career as a child model when she was 11 and when she was 15 she began her career as an actress. In 2004 she made her film debut in Mean Girls but the role of Sophie Sheridan in the 2008 musical feature film Mamma Mia! made her really famous.
Mamma Mia! was Seyfried's first leading role. The film was the fifth highest grossing film of 2008 and, as of March 2010, is the 49th highest grossing film of all time. Her musical performance in Mamma Mia! was released on the film's soundtrack, for which she recorded five songs.
Amanda Seyfried has been ranked six times in six consecutive years on the list of "The Annual Independent Critics List of the 100 Most Beautiful Famous Faces From Around the World".
My opinion of Amanda Seyfried as an actress is very good. I have seen her in 4 movies: Mean Girls, Mamma Mia!, Dear John and also in Letters to Juliet. In all of these movies she had a big role and I think she managed to make the movies better than they would have been without her. What I like the most about her is the charm and the simplicity of her roles, she carries out every single role so well that people start to believe that the character really exists. Amanda Seyfried has shown herself from very different sides and that is always a good thing about an actor or an actress. The characters that she has played are a bit similar but still so different from each other and I think that when somebody can make his or her characters differ from each other as much as Amanda Seyfried does, then people will never get bored by seeing him or her on the screen again. Also, her good looks and incredible singing voice should not be forgotten . I may consider her as one of my favourite actresses and I believe that so do very many other people in the world.
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Michelle Seyfried, born December 3, 1985, is an American actress, singer-songwriter and former child model. In 2004, Seyfried made her film debut in Mean Girls playing Karen Smith. In 2006, she landed a lead role on HBO's popular television series Big Love. After that, Seyfried appeared in the 2008 musical feature film Mamma Mia!. Other recent appearances include leading roles in Jennifer's Body, Chloe, Dear John, Veronica Mars and Letters to Juliet.
Seyfried co-starred alongside Channing Tatum in Dear John, the film adaptation of the novel of the same name that was written by Nicholas Sparks. The film was released on February 5, 2010, and received generally negative reviews. Seyfried has written and recorded "Little House", a song which appears on one of the official soundtracks of Dear John.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJrG3RvI5S0
Despite the reviews, Dear John became the first film to break up Avatar's box office reign at number one at the United States box office and grossed $80 million in the US theatrically.
I enjoy this actress' movies very much. In fact, she is one of my favourite actresses.
Her acting skills are very good and her emotions in the movies are always very natural.
For example, when she is happy about something or crying, it has a great influence on me, so there is a great possibility that during the film I am laughing or crying with her.
One of the things that makes her movies even better is that her looks are very natural.
I believe that one of the reasons why she is so good at acting is her connection to art (music, dancing, singing and painting). Artistic people are more intelligent in many ways, they have much knowledge and they are very open-minded, which makes working with them (in a movie) easier.
I have seen three of her movies (Letters to Juliet, Mamma Mia!, Dear John) and I like them all. The movies are all based on a love story. In these three movies she is always a good girl who is smart, kind, very emotional etc. In my opinion, these roles are just perfect for her. I cannot imagine that she would play an evil character, though, I am sure that she would be good in this role too.

Love- your worst enemy?
There comes a time in everyone's life when we start doubting if this life is really worth living. It is because we have loved. We have reasons to feel bad about ourselves. But is love really your worst enemy? Is heartache a good reason to start feeling worthless and give up on everything?
It is one thing to love a family member. Every person in your family is important and you have to love and care for them. A family has to stick together and always be there for each other. It is not difficult to love somebody related to you. It is quite natural. You can feel the connection between that person and yourself.
On the other hand, loving someone outside your family is something very different. It can be very painful and yet that pain may be the best thing that has ever happened to you. Most of us start out as just friends and love comes later. Others fall in love at first sight. It takes a lot of courage to become more than friends. What happens if this doesn't work out? It is not that easy to stay friends after a bad break-up.
There is one thing you must not be afraid of and that is heartache. Especially young people, who are inexperienced and easy to become attached. It is said that you should not fall in love and become too fond of someone when you are young. It think that is wrong. You cannot force your feelings and nobody is too young to love. Love does not have age limits.
The key to being successful in love is not being afraid of making mistakes and taking risks. You have to be fearless. There may come the time when you have to stay apart from your loved one for a long time but you cannot give in to temptations. You have to stay faithful no matter what. When you see the person who you love again, it will be amazing and it will feel right.
I do not think that love is your worst enemy. There are ups and downs in every relationship but you have to overlook them and see only the good things. It is perfectly normal to fall and get hurt but the important thing to remember is to get back up again and move on. Love is something to fight for.
I watched the film "Dear John" in my English lesson with my classmates. It is an American romantic drama film. It is based on a novel by Nicholas Sparks. The director of the film is Lasse Halström. The main characters are played by Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried. "Dear John" is quite a new film – it was released on February 5, 2010.
It talks mostly about love. John is a Sergeant, who has only two weeks to spend in his hometown. He meets Savannah and they fall in love. During the time he is away, they keep in touch by sending letters. But as the time passes, it gets harder and harder to keep the relationship strong. One day, John receives a letter from Savannah, saying that she is engaged. He gets depressed. When John finally returns to his hometown after several years, they understand that they are still in love with each other and they get back together.
In my opinion, the film is very enjoyable. It talks about the difficulty of being separated from your loved one and I like it because romantic films are my favourite. It is emotional, because although there are several sad scenes – a break-up and death of John's father, the film is funny, because it makes you laugh more than once. I like the actors, because they make a cute couple. However, I don't like the end very much, because it is confusing.
Watching the film was a good experience, because as a whole the plot is interesting and I would recommend it to everyone, but especially to girls and people who are in love.

The film "Dear John" is a great example of how love can survive different disasters and changes, yet still last over the years. It also shows how love can leave us in dilemmas where sooner or later we have to hurt our loved ones.
One of the main characters, Savannah, feels that she has to support her friend Tim, who is suffering from cancer, by marrying him. She breaks up with her boyfriend John, who is in the army. Her behaviour is justified, because John has left her all alone without talking it over with Savannah and Tim is in dire need for someone to take care of him and his autistic son Alan. That way it would be easier for Savannah to adopt Alan, after Tim has passed away.
Although Savannah and John still love each other after Tim's death, they do not reunite. Savannah wants to remain friends, but John finds that it would be better never to meet again. At the end of the movie, though, they accidentally bump into each other and possibly get together again.
I really like this movie, because it shows relationships in different aspects - the joys and troubles, the happy and sad times. I think the actress Amanda Seyfried did a very good job in this role, she played out all the emotions and feelings naturally. This film would be suitable for people who like emotional stories about love.
As a part of this project, we watched the film 'Dear John' in our English class. It is a 2010 romantic war film starring Amanda Seyfried and Channing Tatum. It is an adaption of Nicholas Sparks' novel of the same name.
The film is about John Tyree and Savannah Curtis, who fall in love. Unfortunately, they only have 2 weeks to spend together, because John is a Sergeant in the Army Special Forces and Savannah has to go back to college. They begin a long-distance relationship through letters, which lasts for 2 years before Savannah sends John a letter telling him she has become engaged to someone else. They remain friends, but never actually get back together.
I have mixed feelings about this film. It starts out really sweet and cute like all romantic films do, but in the end it gets a little confusing and even boring. All they do is write letters to each other during half of the film and then out of nowhere Savannah gets engaged to someone else. That doesn't make sense at all. I would've preferred it ifthey stayed together until the end of the film. Of course, with their ups and downs, but still together. It's not really a romantic film if they are apart most of the time. There are definitely some better romantic films out there to watch.
This is only my opinion and many people would probably think otherwise, so I would recommend this film to anyone looking for a romantic film to watch and from there on, you can form your own opinion of it.

In the beginning of the movie, John Tyree and Savannah Curtis meet and quickly fall in love. Unfortunately, John has to go back to the army. For the next two years they communicate through letters. When John comes back, he sees that
I personally enjoyed the movie. Firstly, it is interesting to watch, because the movie is full of emotions - it is positive most of the time, but there are also many sad and terrible events. In addition to that, the characters are very different-
In conclusion, I like it. It is a beautiful and heart-warming story about two lovers. I would really recommend that movie, especially to girls and romantic people.
The movie we decided to watch together was „Dear John". The movie is all about love. It is a romantic drama about two people who fall in love.
John is a soldier and he falls in love with a college student Savannah Curtis. John and Savannah meet in John's hometown, while the girl is visiting the town. They start to hang out together and they fall in love. Unfortunately, John has to leave home and he won't be around for a long period of time. He is not the only one to leave. Savannah has to go back to college, so they are going to be separated for a while. Even though they can't be together, they still love each other and they start exchanging letters. They do it frequently. But everything changes after 9/11. John re-signs on duty and it makes Savannah desperate. She can't stand being alone, so she stops sending letters to John. Then John gets the sad news: his father has died. He goes home immediately and discovers that Savannah has got married. He is surprised to see that her husband is the person who told John not to hurt Savannah. He's much older than she is, but the girl, as she says, married him because he needed someone beside him to take care of his son. John goes back to serve his country and Savannah stays in the USA. When he comes back, they meet and they discover that their feelings haven't changed.
The movie is kind of bittersweet. The saddest part is when John's father dies, but the happiest part is when they meet again. I like the movie and I also voted for it, so I am pretty happy to write about „Dear John".

I watched the film "Dear John" in my English lesson. "Dear John" is a romantic drama, which was directed by Lasse Hallström.
This movie has two main characters. The first character is John, who is played by Channing Tatum, and the second one is Savannah Curtis, who is played by Amanda Seyfried.
This film concentrates on love. It talks about two people - John and Savannah and their magical relationship. John is a young soldier at home on leave, and Savannah Curtis is a college student on her spring vacation. They meet and as time goes by, they start dating. In a few weeks John goes back to the army and Savannah goes to college. During that period, John gets shot and Savannah gets married to a family friend. At the end of the movie John's father and Savannah's husband die, and Savannah and John meet in a cafe.
In my opinion, this movie is average. Nevertheless, I don't like it very much. The reason for this is that it is a romantic movie. I hate romantic movies, I'd much rather watch a comedy or an action movie. Even though it is a romantic movie and has a lot of love in it, I enjoyed watching it. It is very well made and has good actors as well. I like the fact that after all John and Savanna have gone through, they still end up being together. My expectations for this movie were not very high, but I must say I had a great time watching it. I would recommend this movie to girls.

Amanda Seyfried
Amanda Michelle Seyfried is a 25-year-old actress and a songwriter. She was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, the USA. Amanda is best known for her roles in "Mamma Mia!", "Dear John" and "Letters to Juliet". She is a trained singer. She worked with a Broadway voice coach for almost five years and spent two years training in classical opera. Amanda wanted to be an actress at the age of 10 after she had watched Romeo and Juliet with her father.
Amanda began her career as a child model at the age of 11. When she was 15, she began her career as an actress, starting off with uncredited roles and going on to have recurring roles on "As the World Turns" and "All My Children", which expanded into her television and film career. Seyfried made her film debut in "Mean Girls" playing Karen Smith.
Her first leading role was in "Mamma Mia!" in 2008. Her musical performance in "Mamma Mia!" was released on the film's soundtrack, for which she recorded five songs. Later in 2010, Seyfried starred in the romantic-comedy film "Letters to Juliet". In 2010, Seyfried received an award and was named "Showest Breakthrough Female Star of The Year" and was nominated for Best Female Performance for her movie "Dear John"
I think that Amanda Seyfried is a really good actress. I saw her for the first time in "Mamma Mia!" and I was really impressed. Amanda just has the sincerity that makes people want to look at her. She always manages to make the character she plays her own but that doesn't mean that her roles are always alike. I think that it is very important for an actor or actress to be able to do that. My favourite film with Amanda Seyfried is probably "Mamma Mia!" because she was just perfect for that role and her singing was wonderful. Amanda Seyfried is one of my favourite actresses and I am really looking forward to her next movies.

Amanda Michelle Seyfried is a 25-year-old actress and a songwriter. She was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, the USA. Amanda is best known for her roles in "Mamma Mia!", "Dear John" and "Letters to Juliet". She is a trained singer. She worked with a Broadway voice coach for almost five years and spent two years training in classical opera. Amanda wanted to be an actress at the age of 10 after she had watched Romeo and Juliet with her father.
Amanda began her career as a child model at the age of 11. When she was 15, she began her career as an actress, starting off with uncredited roles and going on to have recurring roles on "As the World Turns" and "All My Children", which expanded into her television and film career. Seyfried made her film debut in "Mean Girls" playing Karen Smith.
Her first leading role was in "Mamma Mia!" in 2008. Her musical performance in "Mamma Mia!" was released on the film's soundtrack, for which she recorded five songs. Later in 2010, Seyfried starred in the romantic-comedy film "Letters to Juliet". In 2010, Seyfried received an award and was named "Showest Breakthrough Female Star of The Year" and was nominated for Best Female Performance for her movie "Dear John"
I think that Amanda Seyfried is a really good actress. I saw her for the first time in "Mamma Mia!" and I was really impressed. Amanda just has the sincerity that makes people want to look at her. She always manages to make the character she plays her own but that doesn't mean that her roles are always alike. I think that it is very important for an actor or actress to be able to do that. My favourite film with Amanda Seyfried is probably "Mamma Mia!" because she was just perfect for that role and her singing was wonderful. Amanda Seyfried is one of my favourite actresses and I am really looking forward to her next movies.

"Dear John" is a film based on a novel by an incredible author Nicholas Sparks. It was released in 2010. The main characters John and Savannah are played by Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried.
John is a soldier on a leave and Savannah a rich girl who doesn't drink or smoke and spends her spring break building a home for a poor family. In two weeks they fall in love, but Savannah has to go back to school and John back on a mission. They stay with each other through writing letters all the time. Their love still lives when John comes home for couple of days, but because of 9/11 John feels the duty to reenlist in the Army. And Savannah decides she can't wait forever.
I've seen "Dear John" twice now. At the first time, I really liked it, but for the second time it wasn't the same. I guess it's a film I can only watch once because at the second time it didn't have the same effect. Both actors look amazing, but as for the acting, I think that Tatum just can't reach Seyfried's level. However, they do have a wonderful chemistry. And of course there is an exception. The letter John writes to his father and Channing reading it – this is definitely the best part of the film, the most heartbreaking moment. I like the storyline and characters (but I guess that's where we should mostly thank Nicholas Sparks), but I don't like the ending. It just leaves too much hanging. And because I hate Tim, I really can't understand why Savannah gets married to him. Especially when she loves John, not Tim.
After all I think it's a good film, maybe not the best, but it's watchable. In my opinion, everybody can watch it, as it's great entertainment. And it's definitely a recommended movie for Sparks' fans.

The movie we watched is a romantic drama-war film starring Channing Tatum (John Tyree) and Amanda Seyfried (Savannah Lynn Curtis). It was released in 2010 and is based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks.
The main characters fall in love and spend a lot of time together. Shortly after they have met and have spent wonderful two weeks together, John has to go back to the army. They promise they will write to each other about everything. Despite the long distance, they manage to keep their love alive.
This movie is about love. Love so big that it can survive in any conditions.
I think it is a very beautiful and lovely movie. It's true that some parts of the story are fairly expected – but then again, there are parts that aren't. It made me think about people who are so far away from their loved ones, because of the war. I would recommend it to people, who would like to see a really good romantic-drama and who are not afraid to weep. I think it's a movie, which is worth seeing and as this quote says, "A life lived in love will never be dull." /Leo Buscaglia/--
