I did not realize that.  Quite amazing.  Hopefully, some will be hits, where you can point directly to their contributions.

If someone was deciding between The Notebook and The Outsiders which would you recommend?"

My choice would be “The Notebook”.  I was disappointed by “The Outsiders”.  Maybe my hopes were too high because it is such an iconic  book. I saw “The Notebook” the other day and it was exactly what I thought it would be…a little like a Hallmark production but pulled at the heartstrings and the story was well told. Sadly, I can’t say the same for “The Outsiders” .

Saw both last week and I would definitely go to The Outsiders in a minute before The Notebook, even if The Notebook’s ticket was free.

Having seen both on Broadway -- I would recommend The Notebook.
