Just finished watching the screener of "Precious". Dare I say Oscars. I found Precious to be a tremendous film with some brilliant acting and some great directing as well. Frankly I didn't think this was the type of movie that would normally appeal to me. However as I was watching it I found it to be truly gripping. This movie isn't for the faint of heart mind you. You might shed a tear or two. It's a powerful film that depicts a sad, honest, brutal, disturbing truth. That being said it's also a story about hope and the fight to overcome these hardships. I think a lot of people can probably relate to it in some fashion. Give it a gander if you can. I don't think you'll regret it.
