Here's Where You Can Watch The Notebook

Ah, "The Notebook." Everyone knows about this now-classic romance film, helmed by Nick Cassavetes and starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. It's the story of a boy and a girl from different sides of the tracks who fall in love with each other in the 1940s. Gosling's character, a poor hellraiser named Noah, woos McAdams' wealthy Allie first by dangling off a Ferris Wheel and then inviting her to lie down in the middle of an intersection. Sounds romantic. We've all been there, right? 

Meanwhile, while this story is playing out in the past, we also cut back and forth to the present, where an old man named Duke (James Garner) is telling the love story of Noah and Allie to an old woman (Gena Rowlands) in a nursing home. If you haven't seen the movie or read the Nicholas Sparks book that inspired it, I won't spoil how the past and present stories connect. Just know that the film is tailor-made to make you cry your damn eyes out by the time the end credits roll. It's a love story, baby just say yes.

If you'd like to revisit "The Notebook," or perhaps watch it for the first time, you're in luck! You can stream it right now! Here's how.

Where to watch The Notebook

"The Notebook" is now streaming on Prime Video.

Well, you have options. You can rent the movie (for $3.99) on platforms like Apple TV, Amazon, Google Play, YouTube, and Vudu. 

If you'd rather own the film instead of renting it or streaming it, you can also buy it digitally for $13.99-$14.99 at those same places. Or you can buy yourself the physical Blu-ray disc for $9.99 right here.
