Sister's Keeper Movie Review Review of Sister's Keeper No. 32

"Sister's Guardian" is a warm and touching movie with a little sadness and even despair. It has the ending of being a car, and it leaves the audience with questions worth thinking about. On the basis of family affection, family and love, the film explores that in the face of an incurable disease, as a family member, I should give me every possible opportunity and method to prolong the patient's life. The patient left peacefully.

Sister Kate suffered from leukemia since she was a child. The original intention of her parents to give birth to sister Anna was to obtain blood and cells that could save Kate's life from Anna. But the result was that the older sister was unwilling to live in pain in such a way that harmed her health. She asked her to refuse a kidney transplant and brought her mother who insisted on treatment to court. Mom collapsed and felt heartache, but at the same time she felt guilty and guilty for Anna.

It is human nature to be reluctant to leave family members, but is it humane to use all means to make the patient suffer? This reminds me of euthanasia, a topic with great justice. Is euthanasia "murder" or humanitarianism? Should it be allowed? I think euthanasia is a respect for human nature. When people can't bear the torment of physical illness and can't change, it is better to leave gracefully than to torture themselves and their family members. Dying with dignity is also a human right and should be respected.

A few days ago, Australia thought that 104-year-old scientist Goodall chose to end his life by euthanasia, saying: "A person chooses to die at the right time, it is his freedom, not someone else should interfere."

Love and death are not two sides in the game. Dying does not mean the disappearance of love, and living is not necessarily true love. To love someone may be to let go at the right time, so that everyone can be freed from the pain of injury, the dead rest in peace, and the living live with love in their hearts.

Sister's Keeper is an emotional but sad, even desperate movie, which is ended with a unexpected ending, leaving the audience with a question worth pondering. Based on the love and family, this movie discusses that in the face of incurable diseases, the patient's family should grasp any possible opportunities and methods to delay the patient's life, or give in to the destiny, saying goodbye to the patient without giving over-treating.

The elder sister, Kate, had leukemia since childhood. The reason why the parents gave birth to Anna is to obtain blood and cells from Anna to save Kate's life. However, the grown-up Kate doesn't want to live her life in this way, hurting her little sister's health. Therefore, Kate asks Anna to refuse to transplant kidney and accuses their mother of hurting Anna's health by using Anna's body.

It is human nature to save family member's life, but is it humane to use all the methods to make the patient alive painfully? This reminds me of euthanasia, a controversial topic. Is euthanasia the murder or humanism? Should it be allowed? I think euthanasia is a respect for humanity. When the patient can't bear the physical pain and the medical doesn't work, it is better to leave than to torture himself and his family. It is human right to die with dignity and this should be respected. Several days ago, a 104-year-old Austrian scientist,Goodall decided to end his life. He said, “One wants to be free to choose the death when the death is appropriate time.”

Love and death are not enemies, because death doesn't mean the love is gone. Maybe love is to let him go when the time is appropriate, releasing everyone from the pain of disease. May the deceased rest in peace and the family live strong .

    The strength of this film is not sensationalism, but the shaping of the characters. Specifically, this is a film that is very suitable for uncle control. The capable lawyer and gentle doctor in it are the perfect uncle image. It is recommended that a group member watch it collectively.

My Sister's Keeper quotes

  • [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.

  • Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: I want to sue my parents for the right to my own body.

    Campbell Alexander: Would you repeat that, please?

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: I want to sue my parents for the right to my own body. My sister has leukemia. They're trying to force me to give her my body parts.

    Campbell Alexander: You're supposed to give her a kidney?

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: She's been in renal failure for months now.

    Campbell Alexander: Well, no one can force you to donate if you don't want to, can they?

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: They think they can. I'm under 18, they're my legal guardians.

    Campbell Alexander: They can't do that.

    Andromeda 'Anna' Fitzgerald: Well, I want you to tell them, because they've been doing it to me my whole life. I wouldn't even be alive if Kate wasn't sick. I'm a designer baby. I was made in a dish to be spare parts for Kate.
