Feelings of watching "Sister's Guardian"

One of the things that strikes me the most about this film is that everyone has a different perspective on the problem. The sick sister will think that because she has affected everyone, she will feel that she has lost her father's love, her mother's job, her brother's dyslexia, and her sister's body has been repeatedly hurt. Dad is a forbearer character. He loves his wife, respects and even obeys his wife's ideas and practices, but he can take care of the child's inner feelings and prevent his wife's crazy behavior when it matters. Mom is a loving mom who loves her child almost like crazy and wants to do anything to keep her child. This is understandable. I can understand how to integrate into the role of this mother and experience her emotions. It is a kind of grief and helplessness, but it must be strong and supportive. Everyone knew that my sister didn't want to accept her sister's kidney and continue to live, but my mother couldn't feel it because she didn't want to hear it. When my sister told my mother that she had found the window to leave, the mother broke down and cried like a child. And the younger brother is like a silent guardian, who will stand up when it is critical. And the doctor defending his sister's medical autonomy, born with epilepsy, deeply understands what it's like to lose control of his body. Having experienced the death of her daughter, the judge can better understand the preciousness of every life. Although everyone has different perspectives, their hearts are full of love.
Although the story of the movie is tragic, it has a warm family plot, a lovely dog ​​judge, and a doctor with humanistic care. The movie is full of moving, rich and lively content, which made me experience a special life course.

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.
