If you haven't heard of the Lee Daniels masterpiece film Precious yet, you must be on a lone island.
We were invited to private screening of the film a few weeks back. The reviews have been outstanding from a remarkable cast including Paula Patton, Monique, Lenny Kravitz and Mariah Carey. Perhaps the biggest schock is that Mariah can actually act... maybe it was the absence of makeup which gave her a boost.
It is still the breakthrough performance of Gabby Sidibe as Precious which propels the film to Oscar-worthy heights. She brilliantly embodies Sapphire's abnormal character and pulls on the heartstrings of all viewers. Accompanied by Monique's award-winning performance, Gabby fearlessly breaks through Hollywood's image barrier.
The film has already claimed 6 Indie Film awards including the top 3 honors at Sundance Film Festival.
We will be at Arclight Hollywood tonight and hope to hear feedback from everyone who attends!
For now, check out the film's official trailer below :)
