Description

What keeps a family together? Nick Cassavetes, the director of The Notebook and John Q, again demonstrates his sure hand with tales of deep human emotion in this inspiring film about a loving family challenged - and united - by a child's illness. Cameron Diaz, Abigail Breslin, Alec Baldwin and others in an exceptional cast bring sensitivity to the story of 11-year-old Anna Fitzgerald, conceived to be a donor for her leukemia-stricken sister, and who finally demands the right to control her own body. This act of free will may tear the Fitzgeralds apart. Or it may be the first step to a triumphant realization of devotion, dignity and what it means to be a family.

    I watched this movie with my mom and we both cried. We will watch it again together one day.

    I have a friend that had a kidney transplant 6 months ago and she was on the waiting list for 1 1/2 years.

    I signed my organ donour card as soon as I got my Drivers license. I only hope everyone else would do the same and save a life.

    I watched this movie in health class. I don't think I will watch it again, but it definitely was moving (yes I cried). Both the young actresses were amazing!

    Have a box of tissues ready, your gonna need them! Such a sad movie. I have seen it a couple times on tv but i dont have any intention of running out and buying it for myself. I really didnt care much for Camerons character and find that as an actress she is great but not so much in such a dramatic role that this required. Just my opinion but i got really bored whenever her character was on. Definatly worth watching at least once!

    This movie is definetely a tear jerker. It was a good movie overall, but I expected a bit better since the book was so good. I cried through this entire movie and the plot was good, and the actors in the movie were good too. But it seemed to kind of drag on
