not a movie review

It is difficult for me to explain the impact of "Seven Days Suddenly" on me. It is not a masterpiece, nor can it be called a classic, and what it describes is very different from my life, but it really changed me a lot. I still remember that summer vacation, my reaction after reading this book in the middle of the night with the sound of rain - I immediately turned to the first page and read it again. I have read it no less than seven times, and I can almost memorize many of them. Today, I finally finished watching the movie of the same name. Unexpectedly, I cried in the last ten minutes. My favorite characters in the book are the sisters of Kent and Sam, who are brave enough to stand up for themselves—in a sense, the bravest thing to do. Gotta confess to Kent, send you roses like no other, think you'll come to a party and tell you you don't need to change. I really can't objectively comment on whether the film itself is good or not. After all, the story is already perfect in my heart. In the end, Juliet said that Sam saved her, in fact, as Sam said, it was always herself who was really saved.
