Precious Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire

I'm not going to sugar coat this one and I'll do my best not to be preachy.  You have got to be in a safe place in your head before watching this movie.  It will shake you.  If it doesn't - well, there just might be something off kilter about you.  I now fully understand why this film received such critical acclaim.  It's quite frankly, earth shattering.   It's the kind of movie that literally makes you gasp and desperately try to come up for air.  Being a part of Precious' journey makes you feel like you just want to hold on to those around you and squeeze.  It's a story that few of us film-goers can legitimately relate to however sadly it's a story that too many people have experienced.   See this movie.  Support it.  Witness.  Understand that not everyone is given the same chance when they enter this world.  Perhaps you will view things a little differently even just for a moment.
