I received a sample for this review/feature. Opinions expressed are my own.
The Glass Castle is about a young girl coming of age in a dysfunctional family.??This family’s unique way of life is not what most of us are?accustomed to.? The movie shares real life adventures of an eccentric, resilient and tight-knit family, The Glass Castle is a remarkable story of unconditional love. The Wall family were considered as nonconformist nomads with a mother who’s an eccentric artist and an alcoholic father who would stir the children’s imagination with hope as a distraction to their poverty.? Brie Larson brings Jeannette Walls’s best-selling memoir to life as a young woman who, influenced by the joyfully wild nature of her deeply dysfunctional father (Harrelson), found the fiery determination to carve out a successful life on her own terms.
An all start cast shines in this inspiring film based on The New York Times best-selling memoir.? Jeannette Walls, Oscar? winner Brie Larson (2015, Best Actress, Room) had a poor but wildly adventurous childhood, raised be her free-spirited father Oscar? Nominee Woody Harrelson (2009, Best Supporting Actor, The Messenger) and her mother ? Nominee Naomi Watts?(2012, Best Actress, The Impossible), an eccentric artist.? But when her father’s behavior becomes erratic, Jeanette must find the courage to?live on her own terms in this uplifting story of unconditional love.?
As an adult?Jeanette is not honest about her family with her clients or potential clients, but it was her past that?made her the successful business women she became.? It’s interesting how our pasts affect our future and how we sometimes do the opposite of how we were raised.? For the aspiring artist the perfect gift idea would be something with their favorite art supplies.? Jeanette’s mother loved to paint.? What does your artist like to create?
