Nights in Rodanthe

Nights in Rodanthe You should try to forget the last time Richard Gere and Diane Lane starred in a movie together if you want to see Nights in Rodanthe, because recalling her affair and his subsequent murdering of her lover in Unfaithful will probably make you root against their budding romance in this movie. Even just watching the trailer, as it builds toward their meeting and romance, I want to scream at him, "Don't do it! She'll cheat!" And at her: "You'll be unhappy and stray and he'll MURDER YOUR HOT LOVER! Stay away!" Try to ignore those impulses, though, because this isn't an Adrian Lyne movie. It's adapted from a novel by Nicholas Sparks -- you know, the guy who wrote The Notebook. So, that means there will be obstacles of epic proportions (Christopher Meloni would be an obstacle in any relationship, I'd wager), but ultimately our hero and heroine will end up together. Oops! Now the ending's ruined. Though I'm thinking that moviegoers who want to see this particular type of movie know what they're going to get before they even buy their ticket, and that's why they're there in the first place.
