little idea

The ending of the novel is: Anna was in a car accident and was brain dead. In her will, she donated her kidney to her sister, who eventually lived.

The ending of the movie is: Kate stroked her mother's head and left quietly at midnight. Anna didn't lose her kidney, but every year when Kate left, the family still had to gather at the beach to cherish the lost bone in the family. .

I prefer the ending of the movie, or, the ending is more natural.

Haven't read the novel and lacked enough say. I just feel that too much emphasis on forbearance and sacrificial love is not real enough.

Little Anna was designed to be the mother of her sister suffering from leukemia since Weiwei was born. Since she was three years old, she has been going up and down the operating table continuously, donating her bone marrow, stem cells and umbilical cord blood to Kate continuously. The doctor threatened that Kate would not survive for five years, but her mother quit her salary as a lawyer, and the family united to fight the disease. Kate has survived ten years. In the past few years, she has been in a downturn and encountered love. But everything was too rushed for her. After putting on a wig for a beautiful dance, the boy disappeared without a sound.

Life is fragile, and love becomes even more fragile under the weak fire of life.

It always feels like something is missing, something I don't know, but I can't tell.

Perhaps it is selfishness in great love.

If you were Kate, would you be indifferent to your sister's refusal to donate? No resentment or anger?

If, you are Anna, you can face the danger of your sister, and you want to bravely choose your own future, which is more important than the life of yourself and your loved ones?

Even if it is a drama, there must be a burden. In the end, we know that it was Kate who insisted on giving up her life and arranged for Anna and her brother to sue the mother who never gave up. However, there is always something unreal.

In the face of survival, can coveting love really become more important?

But, as far as we know, illness over time can change a person's character. Long illness will be gloomy, afraid of being abandoned, and become more selfish.

If we use moral standards to judge, it is always complicated and heartache. What the movie wants to tell us is the value of family love and the nobility of dedication.

If you are a sister, can you really be without guilt, facing a young sister, you can only miss the sports you love all your life

? A lost life and a lack of love, there is only growth in demand ,

if

not, I still shed real tears

    Jesse Fitzgerald: God, you people are so stupid!

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: [shouts] You promised!

    Jesse Fitzgerald: Kate wants to die!

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: Stop it!

  • [first lines]

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: When I was a kid, my mother told me that I was a little piece of blue sky that came into this world because she and Dad loved me so much. It was only later that I realized that it wasn't exactly true. Most babies are coincidences. I mean, up in space you've got all these souls flying around looking for bodies to live in. Then, down here on Earth, two people have sex or whatever, and bam, coincidence. Sure, you hear all these stories about how everyone plans these perfect families. But the truth is that most babies are products of drunken evenings and lack of birth control. They're accidents. Only people who have trouble making babies actually plan for them.

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: I, on the other hand, am not a coincidence. I was engineered. Born for a particular reason. A scientist hooked up my mother's eggs and my father's sperm to make a specific combination of genes. He did it to save my sister's life. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if Kate had been healthy. I'd probably still be up in heaven or wherever, waiting to be attached to a body down here on Earth. But coincidence or not, I'm here.
