Precious

In January, I started reading about the film Precious:Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. A no holds bared story of Clarice Precious Jones. Her world is one of urban poverty, abuse, rape, ignorance, education and survival. In the hands of Lee Daniels, this story is turned into a film that is rich, raw and beautiful. The performances are outstanding, this film is well worth a look.

Oh man, this was a hellish film. Exceptional performances all around, and a definite recommendation...provided that people are in the right frame of mind. I just posted my review as well.
