As for this writing, author Nicholas Sparks has written 23 novels, each of which is the Yorkyor Times bestseller. His first novel "Transition" was published in 1985, and he immediately established himself as one of the world's most prominent pit-romantic writers, author of wide, tragic stories of unprotected longing, suffering from women with lubo and flawless rescue studs. His novel in 1999 "A Walk of Memorial" was inspired by the tragic death of his younger sister, killed by cancer at the age of 33. Sparks' novels, mostly set in North Carolina, are known for their plastic, pastoral tones, match melodrama and ended.

Hollywood got the hooks in Sparks in 1999, when they adjusted his book "Message in Bottle" in an important hit starring Kevin Costner. That film made $ 118 million with a $ 30m budget, and a major movie study seems to have found a winning formula. Since then, 11 Sparks' additional novels have been tailored to films, most of them creators of money. It seems, a huge demand for tragic romances during the mid-2000s. The latest Spark-based film was the 2014 TV film Deliverance Creek, a civil war drama starring Lauren Ambrose that was broadcast on life. Although the film adaptations of Sparks' novels have failed to be in favor, the man himself continues to write Heath Romans. (His last, "strange miracles" was published in 2024.)

Another notable aspect of spark -based films is that they are usually not obtained from critics. The adaptation of the "selection" for 2016 has only 11% assessment of the approval of "wounded tomatoes" (based on 83 views). And even his best film has only an approval of 54%, based on 182 review. As Sparks fans can intuitive, his best review was a movie Nick Casetoves romance in 2004 "Notebook".

The Notebook was, as a "bottle message", a remarkable blockbuster, making $ 115 million with a $ 29 million budget. Mereso, however, has become a cultural touch for a generation and is now often considered (in unofficial capacity) one of the best romances of her era. To a large extent in 1940, the "notebook" tells the story of the rich heiress named Eli (Rachel Mac Adams) and a tacit civic mill named Naa (Ryan Gosling) and the years they have spent having again, excluded romance. Eli is indeed in Noah, but he is scared of his romantic intensity, as well as his low class. Because the story of cycles throughout World War II, Eli married another man (Jameseims Marsden) and Noah continued to fight for her. In the end the couple will end together. The "notebook" is reserved by Noah and Eli as older people (featured by Jamesesheims Garner and Anaena Rowlands), as she suffers through a tragic case of dementia. The old Noah reads from a notebook containing the details of their Love Bowl, hoping to restart her memories again.

Some of the "notebook" reviews were quite harsh. Peter Bradshaw, writing about the GuardianHe hated the joy of the film, giving him a starvet (out of five) and called it a shameless knockout "Titanic". "Dentistry in the Renaissance could not have been more painful than seeing this," he wrote. Even positive reviews were qualified. Deson Thompson's review of Washington Post He admitted that the "notebook" is shamelessly lavish, but that it contains some honest, spiritual appearances.

This was Ryan Gosling's first romantic role, and his image as a Starwar move changed shortly thereafter. The film has been starred at the nap parties for most of the next decade.

Most of the "notebook" reviews, both positive and negative, accurately perform the "notebook" as a manipulative cry, and several critics have made liberal use of words such as "SAP" and "syrup". The film is sticky sweet. Similar reviews can be found in reviews of any adaptation of Nicholas Sparks. To date, none of them are overly loved.

As mentioned, the "selection" has only an 11% approval rating, but the romance in 2014 "The Best of Me" did not do much better, with only 12% (based on 82 reviews). In that film, actor "Notepad" also starred in Jamesesi Marsden, though his presence did not make a huge hit. Las Holstrom's "Safe Shelter" With Oshos Duhamel and Ianuliana Huff, he has a 13% approval (based on 147 examinations). In that film, Duhamel's character is so perfect, the more dedicated to the image of Huff, the so unique that he invited the author of this article to invent the phrase "impeccable rescue study", the archetypal flip side of the manic pixie Dreamgirl. ("Flawless salvation for rescue" still catches.)

Sparks actually wrote the script of one of his film adaptations: "The Last Song" in 2010, starring Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth. That film was a spark -sized cut, making $ 89 million with a $ 20 million budget, but he also received bad reports. There is only an approval for approval of 21%, based on 121 examinations. It was the first film "Cyrus" made by "Hannah Montana: The Movie", so the audience may have gathered in theaters just to see the children's diva grew slightly.

All spoken, Sparks' 11 films made nearly $ 900 million, making it a mini industry during the 2000s and 2010. He fell in an estimate since 2016 - the audience no longer seems to be in the mood for soaps tragic romances - but some time there, he was everything.
