A Walk To Remember(2002)

The movie walks a fine line with the Peter Coyote character, whose church Landon attends. Movies have a way of stereotyping reactionary Bible-thumpers who are hostile to teen romance. There is a little of that here; Jamie is forbidden to date, for example, although there's more behind his decision than knee-jerk strictness. But when Landon goes to the Rev. Sullivan and asks him to have faith in him, the minister listens with an open mind.

Aside from being an actress, Paz has found much success as a runway model. Since A Walk To Remember she appeared in many TV shows and movies. The star has become most known for her role in the HBO series, Boardwalk Empire.

I won't claim that A Walk to Remember is unendurable, just uninspired, although it can boast one of the most inventive product placements in recent memory. I can't imagine the film having much success at the box office. Moore will attract some attention, but not enough to make a big splash. Recent movies starring singers haven't fared well (witness the reception of Glitter and On the Line), and there's no reason to believe this one will do any better. The target audience may enjoy the film, but there's little hope than anyone other than 11-15-year old girls will be willing to endure Shankman's curdled concoction. There's nothing remotely memorable about this walk.

Landon: But I do, I do. We've had all the same classes in the same school since kindergarten. Why you're Jamie Sullivan. You sit at lunch table 7. Which isn't exactly the reject table, but is definitely in self exile territory. You have exactly one sweater. You like to look at your feet when you walk. Oh, oh, and yeah, for fun, you like to tutor on weekends and hang out with the cool kids from "Stars and Planets." Now how does that sound?

The "Walk to Remember" is not a walk with both Landon and Jamie. It is Jamie's walk down the aisle. Some people think it is the walk down the pier when he says he loves her and some think it's their first walk up to the school past all of Landon's friends a scene or two later. This is not only stated explicitly in the book but it is also meant to be clear at the end when Landon goes to see Jamie's father and his "thoughts" are something like "...but the vision of Jamie walking towards me will be with me forever." On the DVD commentaries they discussed how they added that because people didn't know why it was called A Walk to Remember or just which walk was supposed to be so memorable. In the book Jamie is much more ill and can barely make it down the aisle, but "it was in every way, a walk to remember."

VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Two young men walk up scaffolding, across a plank and one jumps into some water below; the young man lands in the water with his stomach and when he doesn't surface the other young man jumps in and pulls him out (we see his bloody face and later hear that he's in the hospital). A young man trying to get away from a police officer crashes his car into a barrel (we see his bloody forehead). Two young men shove each other around and one is punched in the face. A young woman collapses and we see her in a hospital bed connected to oxygen tubes and monitors. A young woman has a panic attack (she breaks out in a sweat and breathes heavily) when many students laugh at her. A young woman shoves a young man repeatedly while practicing a play. 041b061a72
