Not one of those miraculous life crap

'My Sister's Keeper', novel by Jodi Picoult which was made into a film, but since I haven't read the book, I want to talk about the movie. Although I love the plot so kudos for the writer but the directing itself was also quite satisfactory to me. Especially great great casting with the children. It really helps when you like the actors to begin with, it was odd with Cameron Diaz because well I've never seen any movies where she's not "young, hot, sexy" which I don't like.. because she's too old for it and it shows. But her being a mother is just odd, it was more convincing of her character when she's being all lawyer than when she was being a mother. It was sort of like, a young woman rushed into serious motherhood because of her daughter's disease. But who's to say someone like her can't be a good mother? Oh well.

Overall, I like it, it was the most touching movie I had seen in a long while. I like Alec Baldwin, I like Joan Cusack, Sofia Vassilieva, Abigail Breslin, and I like Thomas Dekker without hair more. Oh especially I like the ending. I like the fact that they mentioned all that miracle crap but it didn't happen, because miracle does make people happy but it's just not realistic enough. I need to read the book, but a while later so I'm not too influenced by the movie ahaha.

I want to read a GREAT book. I was liking Miss Pettigrew but it's getting too predictable, what is it? just because it's old or am I just reading too slow? Anyway, I better finish it tonight or tomorrow and find a GREAT book tomorrow. I still haven't finished In Cold Blood, but it's just too depressing.
