I really want to see Precious because I love Mariah Carey and it's nice to see her take on a serious role. I actually loved Glitter though and still watch it on dvd even though it honestly is a bad movie lol.

It made me cry but it was a great film. To be honest, all the hype surrounding it didn't match up with the film (if that makes sense) but it was still powerful. I was definitely impressed by MoNique's performance.

way better than the book I must say!
After reading the book my IQ dropped 15 points!
Mo'Nique's acting was AMAZING
*BTW how sexy was Lenny Kravitz*
Edit: Mariah didn't really have a role worth speaking of IMO and a lot of people wanted to go see it because of her*shrugs*

THAT WAS LENNY KRAVITZ? I didnt even realize it. Mmm
Anyways it was different than what I expected but it was very sad, good acting from almost everyone Id say. What a terrible life, it made me appreciate mine much more. When I saw it, all the idiots in the theater were laughing during most of it. SORRY wasnt aware that it was a comedy. I know Monique is usually funny but ummm that doesnt mean shes supposed to be funny in this movie. That pissed me off.
Was this a true story?

No it's not a true story, it's based off a book by Sapphire, but please don't read it!
I was actually shocked that they made a movie from this, if any book of this "urban" genre would have been made into a book, my first guess would have been Coldest Winter Ever

I've never seen her act before, but I think she did a good job, btw I never noticed she had an NY accent until I saw the movie

They need to, that book is freaking GREAT

It's really good, what I like about it, is that you don't even need to read the book to know what's going on, I knew what itwas about before seeing it, because I read the book YEARS ago, but to ppl that haven't read the book, they really really raved about it

I agree. I would've thought people would be fighting to produce a Coldest Winter Ever movie. I've been waiting for that for a lonnnnng time and still waiting

I'm reading Coldest Winter Ever right now! I can't put it down whenever I get the chance to read. I'm almost done with it. I agree it would make a really good movie so far, if they got good actors to star in it, it could be a huge ''urban'' gritty sexy movie.
