I am no one special just a common man
0:21
with common thoughts I've led a common
0:24
life welcome everyone I'm here in South
0:28
Carolina at the filming locations from
0:30
the tearjerker 2004 movie The Notebook
0:34
let's check out some of the locations
0:36
join me shall
0:46
you right down that dirt road there the
0:46
house that Noah
0:55
renovated how ironic that the day I come
0:55
out here they're actually putting a
0:56
fence up you won't be able to get to the
0:58
house anymore mil here we
1:13
accomplished where the mom pulled up
1:13
with Aly parked her car right
1:26
here over on the side they built a
1:29
little work shed that Noah did the work
1:32
and they actually built on a little
1:33
porch right around the side there right
1:36
there is where she would have parked he
1:38
would have come out of his little
1:39
workshop to meet
2:07
yeah you're bored you know it you
2:07
wouldn't be here if there wasn't
2:08
something missing there's the
2:23
tree why didn't you write
2:23
me
2:25
why it wasn't over for me I waited for
2:29
you for 7 years now it's too
2:33
late so right behind me here is where
2:36
Noah was walking with his work buddies
2:38
right down this
2:39
road it's that girl from the carnival
2:41
right and he would have crossed across
2:43
the street here to talk to Ally who he
2:45
had just seen the night before at the
2:48
carnival you remember
2:50
me yeah sure Mr underwear they would
2:54
have been walking straight along here
2:56
you see all this was actually uh set
2:58
dressed up to make it look old school
3:00
they would have walked right over here
3:02
you can see that building there in the
3:04
background I'm really sorry about that
3:06
it was really stupid thing to do c
3:07
Ferris wheel to talk to somebody but I
3:09
had to be next to you right there is
3:12
where she would have been standing and
3:13
they would have had their little
3:14
conversation in this bush was not here
3:17
went up to you on the street you don't
3:18
know him you don't know me but but I
3:19
know
3:24
hi you're
3:27
dumb I could be that here's Hardware
3:31
alley how ironic also you can see some
3:34
of this in the background when they're
3:35
talking the glare in the window you can
3:38
actually see these two
3:43
doors that's another little interesting
3:43
tidbit here on one day what's it going
3:46
to hurt I don't think so what can I do
3:50
to change your mind guess you'll figure
3:52
something out it looks like that was
3:54
definitely here back when the filming
3:56
happened how's the water taste
4:02
oh my gosh it's so
4:06
hot
4:08
warm like bath water after a year of
4:11
Silence he decided to put it all behind
4:13
him and start a new life so he wrote a
4:16
farewell letter this shot here is where
4:18
Ally and the mother would have been
4:20
driving towards us they would have drove
4:22
right down here Ally would have noticed
4:25
the car of her fiance parked right here
4:28
in the road
4:39
oh boy here's where Ally at the end of
4:39
the movie would have pulled her car in
4:41
crying she would have pulled right in
4:44
here right where that gray truck
4:57
was this is where he would have been
4:57
driving his truck very fast straight
4:59
down you can see this tree here in the
5:02
shot his truck would have drove straight
5:03
down
5:13
here the truck would have gone straight
5:13
through here these Gates were closed and
5:15
locked he would have slammed into that
5:17
gate there the truck slammed into here
5:19
when they were closed when Aly moved
5:21
that was actually done on accident but
5:24
the director left the scene in the movie
5:25
because it TR to fit
5:39
reasons Noah wasn't able to get in he
5:39
was stopped right here but I'm going
5:41
forward cuz the gates are open for me
5:44
straight ahead here is where Ali's
5:46
summer home
5:53

5:53
all their scenes right out here where
5:55
they were fighting and where they broke
