Review:
Hailed as “one of the must-see movies of 2017” (Vanity Fair), The Glass Castle chronicles the adventures of an eccentric, resilient and tight-knit family, The Glass Castle is a remarkable story of unconditional love. Larson brings Jeannette Walls’s best-selling memoir to life as a young woman who, influenced by the joyfully wild nature of her deeply dysfunctional father (Harrelson), found the fiery determination to carve out a successful life on her own terms.
Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (Short Term 12) and written for the screen by Cretton & Andrew Lanham, The Glass Castle features all-new bonus content including a behind-the-scenes featurette and deleted scenes, and will be available on Blu-ray and DVD for the suggested retail price of $39.99 and $29.95, respectively.

The Glass Castle was one of the first books I offered as part of our Top Shelf giveaway! Jeannette's story was SO moving, that it read like a movie, but you knew it had to have been so heartbreaking for her. Dealing with a parent's mental illness is never easy, add in alcohol addiction, and it truly is a miracle that Jeanette and her siblings urvived to dulthood in one piece. But they did, and while their childhood was unconventional, the movie shows that there was always love, even if it was shown in odd and sometimes harmful ways. And the one thing was that they always had each other. While I had to do a lot of explaining to Miss Grace, she got caught up in the drama very quickly and stayed for the entire movie! It's actually a good moive to show to older kids to help them understand their friends, who may be dealing with some of the same issues. Woody does an amazing performance, and earned all the accolades given to him for the film! Be sure to check out this film, it's one of the best of 2017!
