I thought this was a great movie but really really sad. There were not too many times where I wasn't crying. The actors were great, Cameran Diaz played a great part and as usual Abigail Breslin was wonderful. The actress who played Kate did a much better job acting in this movie then she does in the show Medium. I will be honest when I saw it was her playing the leading role I was a little dissapointed but she did great. One suggestion..bring lots of tissues! I went with two people who saw the book, one was not happy with the ending because they changed it and the other said they liked this ending better. Go see it if you are in the mood for a tear jerker.
