Netflix changed the ending of The Notebook, why?!

WARNING- CONTAINS SPOILERS.
(Well if you haven’t seen The Notebook)

So Netflix UK decided to change the ending of The Notebook and cut out the highly emotional ending.

If you don’t know about The Notebook and what it’s about, check out it’s IMDB page. The movie has been out since 2004, watch it already.

Now for spoilers, the ending was supposed to be where Noah and Allie die in each other’s arms after she finally remembers her devoted husband. But instead of this ending, they changed it to where he promises to return and complete his story the following day, along with a less satisfying shot of birds flying over a lake.

People weren’t too happy about it, a lot took to Twitter to ask why the change.

But seriously Netflix UK, why change the ending everyone is fully prepared to cry for?
