My sister’s keeper – One possible end

I already know how the film ends, because I had seen it; so, I just tried to imagine one possible ending that I would have gave it if I were the director.
First of all, I would like to highlight that it was simply impossible to imagine one better ending, in my opinion. There are films which have cruel and really sad endings, and there are others that have those so famous “happy endings”; “my sister’s keeps” neither have one or the other! And that isn’t the most extraordinary thing about it! In fact, is the surprise that we have with the ending that makes the whole film even more astonishing.
So, if I were the director (as I certainly wouldn’t have that fabulous idea) I would have made Anna loose the cause on the court, because the judge knew that Alexander Campbell had defended one drunk driver that had hit one girl with the same age of her daughter when she was murdered.
Anna is forced by her mother to do the surgery. Unfortunately, it goes wrong, and Anna ends up dying. And Kate dies at the exact same time.
I love this film ♥

Who said that life was simple? Right?!I say frequently that life is not "painted" in black & white, it has lots of shades of grey... Sometimes there isn't a "right" or "wrong" thing to do. The movie is unpretencious but it is very moving. Let's just hope we never have to make such tough decisions in our lives...
