Room

Since Netflix was kind enough to send two flicks as they promised after the one that had been sent San Andreas had a crack in its DVD, we decided to have an afternoon matinee viewing of Room circa 2015, from the book Room circa 2010, and based on that true story.
Sadly similar to an American  story of another kidnapping.
This story is about a twenty-four year old woman, Joy Newsome, played brilliantly by Brie Larson, the best actress Oscar recipient that was well deserved, who had been kidnapped at the age of seventeen, falling for the story to help the man look for his lost dog... She is sexually abused during a seven year period and her five year old son, Jack, played by a superb young actor, Jacob Tremblay, with an amazing career ahead,  is the product of those horrid experiences. But he is her one and only shinning light and only beautiful goodness of the story and reason for going on... a poignant story that makes you laugh and cry, and makes you want to hold the ones you love that much closer. Two thumbs up from Hubby and me!

Moving on...

In other news today is how they say "the status quo", not much new.

Since this is rather late I will end this as a shorty.

On this note of short and sweet, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy healthy safe and peaceful good night, and ask you all to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages with you know whom and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
