Precious

Courtesy of Icon, we have the Oscar-nominated Precious on DVD.

A powerful film, Precious feels almost like a contemporary take on The Colour Purple, with its story of abuse and survival. It is so good that even Mariah Carey can actually act in it!

In Harlem, an overweight, illiterate teen pregnant with her second child is invited to enrol in an alternative school in hopes that her life can head in a new direction. It will not be easy for Precious to break away from the chains that have made her unhappy and incapable of loving herself.
