Adapted from author Nicholas Sparks' popular romance novel, director George C. Wolfe's Nights in Rodanthe tells the tale of a doctor (Richard Gere) en route to reconcile with his estranged son when his benevolent mission is sidelined upon checking into a North Carolina beach-town inn. When the doctor arrives at the inn, he enters into a passionate affair with an unhappily married woman (Diane Lane) who is currently considering divorce. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
Richard Gere and Diane Lane together are outstanding. Some parts are a bit different from the book but not in a bad way. Great love story.

I loved this movie. Diane Lane is great as the love interest to Richard Gere who is almost always wonderful. This love developed so subtlely that it was believable. The hurricane was a little dramatized in that it came and went very quickly but it still added some thrills. It was a story of personal growth for Richard Gere. I felt the story ended pretty much the only way it could even though I really wanted something else. Well worth watching.
