Room (2015)
Directed by Lenny
Abrahamson this film based on the novel of the same name stars Brie
Larson, Jacob Tremblay and Joan Allen. A young woman and her 5 year
old son are kept locked in a room by a man who kidnapped her seven
years ago.
This is one of those
great films that you sincerely hope to never watch again because the
material is that affecting. Manoeuvring skilfully round what is very
dark subject matter the film crafts a story of love and adjustment
from the point of view of a young boy. I loved the performances and
the direction is perfectly light when it could easily have been heavy
handed.
5/5
