The Lake House

Product Information

An original motion picture soundtrack featuring songs used in the film, as well as a selection of original score cues composed and produced by Rachel Portman, was released digitally and in physical format on June 20, 2006, through Lakeshore Records in the United States. The Super never missed a chance to trumpet his views on loyalty, hoicking up his lunch-stained trousers and giving the assembled detectives a spittle-laden blast: ‘Nothing worse than a canary, you hear? Clouds covered the moon, a stroke of luck she didn’t deserve, and she made her way through the thick, black night as quickly as she could. Morton had me hooked on her book THE FORGOTTEN GARDEN, and THE LAKE HOUSE is going to be right up there with it as one of my all-time favorites. A remake of the 2000 South Korean film Il Mare, it stars Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock, who last appeared together in the 1994 action thriller film Speed.

The Lake House by Kate Morton | Waterstones

No one discovers the truth until years later when Sadie, with the help of Alice and an old police officer who was on the original case, discover what truly happened to Theo. And yet here he was, a stranger in their midst, and just like that the afternoon’s spell was broken. As Kate tells Alex earlier in the story, he died in the accident, while she created a story around him to cope with the trauma. They'd disappeared inside the woods, and stolen apples from the farm next door, and floated down the stream in her little boat as one silken hour spun itself into the next. While out walking one day, she stumbles upon the old estate - now crumbling and covered with vines, clearly abandoned long ago.

Alice and her sister Deborah get closure about the past and celebrate the discovery of their long-lost brother. Alice is sure that when she was sixteen, consumed with fervour for both her writing and a certain unsuitable person, her foolish actions leading up to the Midsummer’s Eve party were instrumental in the kidnapping of her baby brother. With the revelation that the mailbox acts as a time machine, Kate’s epistolary time warp romance with Alex reaches an equilibrium, and they long to meet each other. Well, Alice decided as she watched the young man walking up the driveway, Laura would just have to wait. Puig did acknowledge the chemistry between Reeves and Bullock, but noted that their moments together in the film were rare.

The Lake House Ending, Explained: Is Alex Dead or Alive? The Lake House Ending, Explained: Is Alex Dead or Alive?

While out walking, she stumbles upon the old Edevane estate—now crumbling and covered with vines, clearly abandoned long ago. In the latest from Morton, secrets from the past come to light in the present, a theme that is the author’s specialty…. With a final burst of energy, Sadie forced herself to sprint to the black stump, her turn-around point. She watched his progress, the rope rough against her cheek as she strained to see around the willow’s weeping bough.The bar scene in the Loop where Kate is seen sitting on the barstool, speaking with the woman at the wooden bar, is the real "Millers Pub" located at 134 S Wabash Ave, Chicago, IL 60603. A narrow stream chattered its way across the estate, delighting in the brief sunny respite before being reeled inexorably back towards the woods, and a stone bridge, the legacy of some long-ago great-uncle, straddled the banks allowing access to Loeanneth . Anthony and Eleanor already have one daughter, Deborah, and Eleanor is pregnant with Alice when Anthony leaves for France (they will have one more daughter together, Clementine).
