My Sister's Keeper
this movie let me think about my childwood.
i wanted have a big brother or sister when i was a kid caz i want someone can protect me when i was bullyed. i want someone can attend me when i was lonely. but this wish be truth? i think i will hate my sise or bro.....

i think Nick Cassavetes want to show the both sides of the families and patient's feeling
but it can't show clearly in the movie. it makes me feel confuse and it can't show the novel touch
Director:Nick Cassavetes
Writers (WGA):Jeremy Leven (screenplay) andNick Cassavetes (screenplay)
My Sister's Keeper is about Anna Fitzgerald, a 13-year-old girl who enlists the help of an attorney, Campbell Alexander, to sue her parents for the rights to her body. Kate, Anna's older sister, suffers from acute promyelocytic leukemia, a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. Anna was conceived through in vitro fertilization to be a donor who could save Kate's life. Her parents initially use Anna's umbilical cord blood to treat Kate, and continue to use Anna as a donor for other bodily substances as Kate cycles through remission and relapse over the years. Anna is usually willing to donate whatever Kate needs - blood, bone marrow - but a kidney transplant would be a major surgery for not only Kate, but Anna as well and living with one kidney would affect her greatly. Anna eventually petitions for medical emancipation so that she will be able to make her own decision concerning donating a kidney to Kate, who is experiencing renal failure. Sara, her mother, is an ex-lawyer and decides to represent herself and her husband in the lawsuit. She continually attempts to convince Anna to drop the suit, but Anna refuses to do so.

To Karis,
It is a very touching film. I haven't seen it yet but after reading your post I went to youtube the trailer. And my eyes are full of tears now.
To post a youtube video, you need to go to HTML editing mode when you are posting your blog. And at the youtube page, at the right hand side there should be a location called "embed :......". Copy the code into your post HTML editor then when you publish you can see it there.
