Netflix have responded after fans accused it of changing the ending of The Notebook

"We're getting to the bottom of it ASAP."

Hopeless romantics across the globe fell head-over-heels for the story of Allie and Noah almost instantly when The Notebook hit the big screen. 15 years on, people continue to pay tribute to the beloved film couple through anniversary photoshoots, proposals and date nights. So it's no wonder that they were excited when The Notebook landed on Netflix - and more than a little confused when the ending appeared to be changed. Nick Cassavetes' 2004 romantic drama centres on Noah Calhoun and Allie Hamilton, a young couple who fall in love in 1940s America. The original ending takes place in a nursing home, with Noah and Allie passing away together in bed, holding hands. But in the version on Netflix, the scene cuts away as Noah and Allie kiss to show birds flying across the lake before the closing credits hit the screen. And as you can only imagine, people were less than impressed when they discovered the change. However, Netflix have now issued a statement about the situation - clarifying that they haven't, in fact, changed the film and that it was just an alternate ending.

Things you should know… – we did not edit the notebook – an alternate version exists and was supplied to us – we are getting to the bottom of it asap – apparently some films have more than one ending?!

Guess that settles it, so.
