Story:
At a modern-day nursing home, an elderly man, whom people call "Duke", begins to read a romantic love story from his notebook to an elderly woman and fellow patient.
His story begins in 1940. In Seabrook Island, South Carolina, local country boy Noah Calhoun is smitten with a 17-year-old heiress, Allie Hamilton. After seeing Allie at a carnival, Noah climbs up the Ferris wheel in an attempt to speak to her. She finally accepts to go on a date with him after he threatens to jump off of the Ferris wheel. Noah and Allie's friends, Fin and Sarah, set up a movie date for them, and after dancing in the middle of the street when the film ends, the two begin an idyllic summer romantic love affair. After spending a beautiful summer together with their friends, Fin and Sarah, Noah takes Allie to an old abandoned plantation house. After Allie plays the old piano, she asks him to make love to her, but they are interrupted by Fin, telling them that Allie's parents have sent the police to look for her. When Allie and Noah return to her parents' mansion, her parents forbid the two to continue their romance. Allie runs outside after Noah, but the two fight and eventually break up. The next day, Allie's mother informs her that they are returning home to Charleston. Allie rushes to the lumberyard in search of Noah, but finds Fin instead. She asks him to tell Noah that she loves him, and after promising he will, the two say goodbye and Allie leaves with her family.
Noah writes a letter to Allie each day for one year. Her mother,keeps them hidden from Allie to protect her daughter from getting her heart broken. As Noah and Allie have no contact from each other, they both have no choice but to move on with their lives.
Noah and Fin enlist in the army to fight in World War II. During her third year in college, Allie volunteers as a nurse to care for wounded soldiers.There she meets Lon Hammond Jr., a dashing young lawyer who is funny, charming, sophisticated, and comes from old Southern Money. One night at a dance club with her parents, Lon proposes to Allie. She accepts gladly, but only sees Noah's face in place of Lon's.
In the present, it is made clear that the elderly woman is in fact Allie, who is suffering from dementia and cannot remember any of the events being read to her. Duke, the man who is reading to her is her husband, but Allie cannot recognize him. Their visiting children tell him that he needs to accept that she can't remember anymore. Duke tells them that the more he reads to their mother, the more she'll remember and he won't give up on her.
Back in 1947, Allie checks into a hotel and goes to see Noah. The two talk for awhile before Noah invites Allie for dinner. Afterwards, he reads to Allie Walt Whitman's poetry. Before Allie leaves, Noah asks Allie to come back in the morning, and she agrees. The next day, Noah takes Allie for a boat ride on the river, and shows her a place filled with geese and swans. On their way back, a storm begins. Once they reach the shore, Allie confronts Noah as to why he didn't write to her. He tells her of the 365 letters that he wrote to her. After arguing, the two kiss passionately and make love. Afterwards Martha Shaw (Noah's love interest) visits and Allie prepares a meal for all of them. The next day, Allie awakens to find a flower and note from Noah saying he went to get breakfast for them and didn't want to wake her. She then follows a line of white arrows and discovers an art room overlooking the river (a promise Noah had made to Allie when they were young). After painting for a while, her mother, Anne, comes and appears on Noah's doorstep to pick her up. She takes Allie out for a drive and reveals that, 25 years earlier, she also loved a common man. Her parents disapproved of him because he was lower class and Anne was banned from seeing him again. After that, she married her father, whom her parents approved of as he was from a rich family. Arriving back at Seabrook, Anne leaves Allie with a bundle of all of Noah's letters, revealing that she had intercepted them in an attempt to protect her from getting her heart broken and hopes that she will make the right choice. Allie and Noah then have an argument about her indecisiveness as to who she should choose, and Allie leaves in frustration and confused. While driving Allie begins crying and nearly has a collision with a truck. After pulling over, she reads the last letter that Noah wrote her and feels betrayed by Anne for keeping the letters away from her. Allie returns to the hotel and confesses to Lon that she has been unfaithful to him. Despite his upset at this news, Lon tells Allie that he still loves her deeply, but that if she chose him she would not be truly happy- he would be sharing her with another man.
In the present, Allie demands Duke tell her the ending of the story- but he waits for her to think. Becoming lucid, she remembers that the story Duke was reading is the story of how they first met. Back in 1947, after reading all of the letters, Allie appears at Noah's doorstep, having left Lon at the hotel. Elderly Allie suddenly remembers her past; after finding out about her illness, she herself wrote their story in the notebook with instructions for Noah to "read this to me, and I'll come back to you." But minutes later Allie relapses, losing her memories of Noah again. She panics, not understanding who he is, and has to be sedated.
The elderly Noah has a heart attack, and Allie is alone for a time. However, as soon as he is sufficiently recovered, Noah ("Duke") goes to Allie's room one evening to find her lucid again. Allie questions Noah about what will happen to them when she will not be able to remember anything anymore, and he reassures her that he will never ever leave her. She asks him if he thinks their love for each other is strong enough to make miracles, and he replies that he thinks their love could do anything. After telling each other they love one another, Noah adds "I'll be seeing you". The next morning, a nurse comes into Allie's room, only to find Allie and Noah in each other's arms after passing away peacefully during the night.
