It begins in a nursing home, where a man (James Garner) arrives every day armed with a notebook from which he reads stories about a couple, Noah and Allie (played by Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams), to an unresponsive woman (Gena Rowlands). Who are the characters in the book, and why does the stranger insist on reading about them aloud? |

Alfred Blalock (Alan Rickman), a white surgeon from Johns Hopkins Hospital, and Vivien Thomas (Mos Def), a black carpenter with big dreams, are a great team, but their dissimilar societal statuses cause problems.
