Movie: The Best of Me
By: Cece Hymes
I love a good book or movie about love. Everyone wants love but to have your best friend and be in love with them is a different kind of love. My motto is that your best friend is your soulmate. This movie was a good movie, it was emotional but good.
It was about Amanda and Dawson. They went to high school together. Dawson lived with his dad, which the dad didn’t care much about him. He would beat Dawson and didn’t want him going to school. Amanda saw a lot in Dawson and did things to get his attention because she liked him. Dawson runs away and ends up sleeping in a garage where Turk stayed. Turk is an older man that lives alone. His wife passed away and Dawson ended up becoming the son he never had.
Dawson and Amanda fall in love and become the best of friends. She pushed him onto so many levels. No amount of money or anything can keep them apart until something bad happens. Dawson had to go away for 8 years in prison. He didn’t want Amanda to put her life on hold for him. He wanted her to live her life and not wait on him. He cuts off all visitation with her that breaks both of their hearts.
21 years have passed, and Turk passed away. He leaves everything to Amanda and Dawson. They hadn’t seen each other for 21 years. Amanda has had 2 kids and gotten married. When Amanda and Dawson have to pack up Turk house, old sparks come back. They never stop loving each other. They were each other’s soulmates and best friends. The type of love they had is hard to find. When they rekindle it’s like it may be too late. She hasn’t been this happy in a long time. When you find someone like that it’s hard to find again. We as people end up settling in a relationship for years with a person we love but not a person we are in love with. You never forget your first love.
I hate that kids must go through a lot of pain with their parents. Some parents do not deserve to be parents. I don’t want to give the whole movie away, but it is emotional and good. If you like love movies like me. Make sure to watch this on Netflix. Tell me what you think of the movie.
