"Room" (new movie)

[applecruncher]

Anyone seen this movie? I plan to.


"Held captive for years in an enclosed space, a woman (Larson) and her 5-year-old son (Tremblay) finally gain their freedom, allowing the boy to experience the outside world for the first time."

Brie Larson, Jacob Tremblay, William H. Macy

Last night I saw 9 yr old actor Jacob Tremblay on Jimmy Kimmel. Quite cute and impressive! (of course, he was younger when the movie was actually filmed) There’s buzz that he will be nominated for a Best Actor Oscar (if, so the youngest ever).

:shucks: Jacob didn't get nominated. But Brie Larson (actress who plays his mother) got nominated for Best Actress.

Yes, Brie won Best Actress Oscar.

Very good movie, but also heartbreaking. Little boy rolled up in carpet in back of pickup truck....intense.

I watched that awhile back. Still haunts me sometimes but a very good movie.
