Precious

This movie is indeed a rare find! Was recommended by Hannah months back...

From wiki - In 1987, obese, illiterate, 16-year-old Claireece "Precious" Jones (Gabourey Sidibe) lives in the ghetto of Harlem with her dysfunctional and abusive mother, Mary (Mo'Nique). She has been impregnated twice by her father, Carl, and suffers long term physical, sexual, and mental abuse from her unemployed mother. The family resides in a Section 8 tenement and subsists on welfare. Her first child, known only as "Lil Mongo", has Down syndrome and is being cared for by Precious' grandmother.

This little summary tells you how screwed up her life is... Life is as bad as it gets...

There's this one scene in the movie that made me tear... Precious describes how "love" has ruined her life... How much pain it has caused her... It was doing her more harm than any other thing... A resolution came forth with her teacher's reply... The "negativity" was immediately held captive albeit the use of simple words... It's something hard to describe, the flux of emotion was just too much for one to suppress... Watch it and you'll know...

Am still suffering from the aftermath of the show... Abit drained...
