50 First Dates (2004) is a comedy directed by Peter Segal about Henry (Adam Sandler), a man who never wanted a long term relationship with a woman until he falls in love with Lucy (Drew Barrymore), a woman with anterograde amnesia who forgets who he is every morning.

Life Lesson:

Loving someone will not keep you from your ambitions; it will help you reach them.

Movie Scene:

Lucy: I don’t know who you are Henry, but I dream about you almost every night. Why?

Henry: What would you say if I told you that notebook you read everyday used to have a lot of stuff about me in it?

Lucy: I would say that that makes a lot of sense.

Henry: You erased me from your memories because you thought you were holding me back from having a full and happy life, but you made a mistake. Being with you is the only way I could have a full and happy life. You’re the girl of my dreams, and apparently I’m the man of yours.

Lucy: Henry, it’s nice to meet you.

Henry: Lucy, it’s nice to meet you too.
