Precious





I don't normally 'do'


movie reviews...


I leave that to the 'experts'..


but


I was so 'affected' by the movie


"Precious"


that I'm still not sure how I'm feeling about it.




Dear Lord, talk about depressing...


even the 'upbeat' ending


left me somewhat 'empty'..




I did get a little 'lost' from time to time..


I guess when Precious went into her 'fantasy world' to escape


the horrific abuse that was her life..


I think what affected me most..


was the knowledge that 


this shit really does happen.

I haven't seen the movie but pretty much every review I've read is positive. Might have to check it out!

I've been wanting to see this and kind of avoiding it too... I am also disturbed that this is a true story.

Thanks for visiting my blog by the way! You have a ton of interesting stuff over here! I'll be back!!!

It was a good movie...as far as the acting..etc. goes...kudos to both Mariah and Lenny K - as well as the lead role actresses.....it's just the storyline that was so very 'heavy'.

I had to watch a couple of Parenthood's after..so that I wouldn't fall into a depression of sorts.
