How long were jamie and landon married

Landon is seen driving a 67 Camaro in A Walk to Remember. In , Shane West revealed to The Wrap that he bought the vehicle after filming ended. A Walk to Remember will always be one of my favorite tearjerkers, and for those who share the love of A Walk to Remember , can catch it on Netflix in July. Spent most of my life in various parts of Illinois, including attending college in Evanston.

I have been a life long lover of pop culture, especially television, turned that passion into writing about all things entertainment related. When I'm not writing about pop culture, I can be found channeling Gordon Ramsay by kicking people out the kitchen. Jerrica Tisdale. Your Daily Blend of Entertainment News.

He hangs out with questionable friends who haze people , breaks the law, and is generally selfish and shallow.

Sure, he gradually becomes a nicer person as the movie progresses, but for quite a bit of the film it's uncertain whether he's actually sincerely trying to be a better person or if he's just a hormonal teen trying to get a girlfriend. Look at the way he treats Jamie. She starts to warm up to him when he gives her a new sweater, but even this seemingly sweet gesture is actually pretty insulting considering that he and his friends regularly mock the sweater she usually wears.

He also gets angry with her when she reveals she has leukemia and lets her run off in the middle of the night without following her. When Jamie comes to apologize for not telling him sooner, Landon doesn't reassure her that he was the one being a jerk. Instead, he lets her apologize even though she didn't owe him anything.

Not exactly Prince Charming material. When Landon gets caught after the prank incident , it seems like he's about to get his comeuppance. While he does get punished, the consequence the principal doles out is pretty mild. He has to help the janitorial staff after school, volunteer as a tutor, and participate in the school play. His punishment is to essentially socialize and get to know other people, while participating in extracurricular activities.

While we can see the value in forcing Landon to expand his social horizons, it seems like he's also getting away with doing something horrible. Making things even stranger is the fact that Landon has zero acting experience, yet is given the lead role in the play against his wishes. Landon is a terrible actor and has to turn to Jamie for help with his lines.

Not only does this punish kids who truly wanted the role, but it also seems like a lazy vehicle to get Jamie and Landon together. A Walk to Remember was notable for the fact that it lacks the typical teen movie makeover scene where the geeky protagonist changes from awkward to dreamboat — all with the help of a haircut and contact lenses. The director, Adam Shankman, revealed that he deliberately avoided having Jamie wear glasses because he wanted to avoid the cliche transformation. Okay, Adam.

Yes, Jamie wears comfy and often unfashionable clothing through the movie, but she still had a climactic makeover moment. In the school play, Jamie plays a nightclub singer and is dressed to the nines complete with lots of makeup and curled hair.

Her dress is uncharacteristically form-fitting and low cut enough that it would violate dress codes at many high schools. It seems implausible that Jamie, who prefers to dress modestly even her wedding dress has sleeves!

Landon predictably can't take his eyes off her and is stunned at her transformation. We're supposed to believe that he falls in love with her after being spellbound by her beautiful singing voice, but instead he falls victim to the teen movie trope of falling for a girl after she becomes conventionally attractive enough to date. Landon is so captivated by Jamie's song and her makeover that, at the end of the song, he can't resist leaning in for a kiss. This would be sweet if it weren't for the fact that the kiss wasn't actually in the play's script and Jamie wasn't prepared for it.

The opposites-attract love story broke hearts everywhere in In the film, Moore played Jamie Sullivan. She caught the eye of a local troublemaker, Landon Carter Shane West , and the two fall in love. The romance is short-lived because — spoiler alert — Jamie dies. The ending is not ambiguous in any way. Fifty-seven-year-old Landon reflects on that day, telling us that he now believes in miracles. This final chapter creates more questions than it answers, which is Sparks' intention.

As Landon scurries to make plans for the wedding, his parents and Jamie's father try to change his mind, thinking he is marrying Jamie only to make her last days happy. He assures them that he is actually doing this for himself; he is following his heart and the voice of God, as he understands it. Landon knows he loves Jamie and knows he would have wanted to marry her even if she had never been ill.

In the final two paragraphs of the chapter, Landon reflects on the 40 years that have passed since his wedding day. He has never removed his ring in all those years, and he still loves Jamie. And more than anything else, Landon reveals that he now believes in miracles. And thus the novel ends, without our knowing to which miracle Landon refers.
