Editor's Note Landon Carter (Shane West) and his friends are the coolest kids in Beaufort, North Carolina. They wear the right clothes, drive the right cars, and get into just enough trouble to be rebellious. Jamie Sullivan (Mandy Moore) is the opposite--there doesn't seem to be anything cool about her. The preacher's daughter, plain Jamie wears big boxy dresses and the same sweater every day. She endures the scorn of Landon and his friends with a smile, always looking for the best in people. When a prank planned by Landon and his friend goes terribly wrong, the principal sentences him to tutoring on the weekends and working on the school play, activities in which Jamie is involved. As the two begin spending time together, Landon finds himself intrigued by this guileless girl who sees beauty in everything and exhibits unwavering faith in people and in the world. When circumstances beyond Landon and Jamie's control threaten their love, he stays by her side and does everything he can to make her dreams come true. Based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Nicholas Sparks, the film also stars Peter Coyote and Daryl Hannah.

San Francisco Chronicle 8 of 10
...like Love Story [the film] carries a powerful emotional punch. West, a brooding babe-in-training, weaves a complex web of feelings in his portrayal of Landon. The sexy Moore, certainly among the most winning of the latest crop of singers, is even more captivating as an actress.... Terrific, in fact, describes the whole affair. - Octavio Roca

Chicago Sun-Times 8 of 10
The performances by Moore and West are so quietly convincing we're reminded that many teenagers in movies seem to think like 30-year-old standup comics... That Jamie and Landon base their romance on values and respect will blindside some viewers of the film... A Walk To Remember is a small treasure. - Roger Ebert
