The movie has about 20 minutes left and Precious just found out she has HIV. The way life smacks this individual around is very disheartening. I hope it has a good ending but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Based in the novel "Push" by Sapphire?

The way Gabourey Sidibe unabashedly portrays black BBW's is pretty brave.





Her roles in American Horror Story are always top notch.

pretty affecting movie. I don't know I'd want to watch it again. Mo'nique deserved every bit of her Oscar, that performance was up there with Nurse Ratched to me. That whole 'who was gonna love me' scene was intense.

Sorry but that was the worst movie I've ever seen.

That movie was incredibly depressing. Saw it once and never again.

she played fat and dumb better than anyone I've ever seen on film.

Other than that, I loathed the movie and would never want to sit down to try to watch it again.

Hollywood patronized the shite out of her during the awards circuits that year. It's like they went overboard with all of the false praise strictly because she was morbidly obese and unattractive.

Yep.

Her character was such a loathsome piece of shite.

Did you all know that the receptionist at the welfare office IS Mariah Carey. I thought it did look like her but she seems smaller in the movie than on that cd cover from the 90's where she's wearing that rainbow bikini.
