My Sister's Keeper

[BrigitBigKnickers]

Loved the book. Just saw the film on DVD...

Why why why did they change the end?

what was the end in the book?

Hide this thread if you are reading the book and don't want to know the end spoiler imminant!

Anna was killed in a car accident and ended up being the donor for her Kate (the one with leukemia) who was subsequently cured. Such a brilliant twist in the original story...

Why did they change it?

sorry imminent

they changed it! to what? i've only read the book, not seen the film

that would have been a good ending too...

they change things for reasons known only to themselves.

enjoyed the film though....we all did. dd wants the book,so will have a read

I've read the book but not seen the film, did they make it a happy ending? If so, it's 'cos americans (apparently) demand happy endings!!

Neither the book or the film has a happy ending.

can someone please tell me the ending of the film! i keep missing the discussion!

the end of the film is that Kate (elder sister) dies...as she knew she was going anyway, and there is a kind of epilogue a few years later where they are all "healed" and peaceful again.

I had forgotten that the book had a different ending.

kate dies!!! omfg why would they change an absolutely brilliant twist of an ending?

gawd knows.....

but since I had totally forgotten the end of the book (was years ago I read it) I was quite satisfied with the film....

I was talking with someone else today about it who said she reckoned the car accident to the younger sister was just a little too convenient to be believable!!

I haven't read the book so wasn't aware of the different endings. I watched the film on a plane and was in tears most of the way through. I found it really moving albeit depressing. Too sad for comfort.

lmao at anna dying being 'convenient'

i know what she means but i was still when i happened
