I just read the book by Nicholas Sparks, then watched the film to compare both.
To be honest, I prefer the film by far. Most of all it has a lovely filming location (Popham Beach near Bath in Maine), a beautiful soundtrack, a riveting plot and convincing actors.
In the film the deceased Catherine was a gifted artist and her paintings are important for the plot.
In the book she didn't do anything special.
In the book Theresa and Garrett spent much more time together, flying back and forth between Boston, MA, and Wilmington, NC. In the film they only met a few times.
In the book Garrett teaches Theresa and Kevin how to dive, in the movie he meets Kevin only once in Boston.
The movie touched me much more than the book did.
