"Precious" is a deeply sad yet hopeful film, blending multiple stories of abuse and systemic neglect. It transcends typical narratives with creative elements and features outstanding performances, particularly by Mo'Nique.
Although horrible and depressing things take place in this movie, nonetheless, it is a story thoroughly suffused with hope and resilience. There were some creative elements to this movie that I didn't suspect, which elevated it above a standard "made-for-tv movie" type story of abuse. The performances are terrific, too, especially by Mo'Nique, who was outstanding.
Very sad movie although it is not bases on the life of one person but it incorporates different people and the abuse they had to endure and how the system just turns a blind eye…
