Now, that's a story there!

Rating: 8/10 (29 February 2016)

The story behind the movie is breathtaking on its own. Being held up in a room for that long and not going insane is by itself a miracle and a triumph of mind over matter. I loved the fact that the movie focused on what happens after, which is a big deal on its own.
Everyone seems to think that it's all about getting out of a hardship when it's also about handling the aftermath and making it over such an experience. This was not a sad movie. It was a movie about courage, about never letting go and keeping it together.
I will forever remember the dialogue when she says to the kid "I am not a good mom" and he replies, "well, you're mom". This was the one phrase that defined the movie. Nothing more needed there. This movie, while not a 9 or a 10, it's one of these movies that will stay with you forever.
