Plot

Tagline: It all comes down to who's by your side.

The movie revolves around the lives of two opposite Beaufort High School teenagers: the daughter of a Baptist minister, Jamie Sullivan (Mandy Moore) and a jaded, aimless high school senior, Landon Carter (Shane West).

When a prank on a fellow high-school student goes bad, Landon is punished by having to participate in various after-school activities, such as tutoring to younger disadvantaged children at their sister school and acting in the drama club's final production, the spring play. At these functions he is forced to interact with Jamie Sullivan, but does not befriend her immediately. When Landon realizes that he needs help learning his lines for the production, he asks Jamie to assist him. She agrees to help him if he promised not to fall in love with her which he responds by saying, "that won't be a problem." At school, however, Landon continues to look down upon Jamie and even mock her along with his closest collegues.

Eventually, Landon is intrigued by Jamie's positive attitude, forgiving nature, and overwhelming faith. Landon falls in love with Jamie even though she had previously told him not to. The two begin dating, which threatens Landon's reputation and friendships with other students. He defends Jamie on various occasions and decides to end connections with his previous clique.

Jamie finally tells Landon that she has terminal leukemia and has stopped responding to treatments. As Jamie is hospitalized, Landon fulfills various wishes on Jamie's "Before I Die" list. Through this process, Landon and Jamie learns more about nature and love. The movie ends with Jamie's death, but only after the couple was married in the same chapel as Jamie's deceased mother, which topped Jamie's wish list.
