PUSH

The movie world is abuzz with anticipation of this movie starring Monique and newcomer Gabourey Sidibi. It is based on the novel PUSH by Sapphire. Sidibi's stars as Precious who endures unimanigable abuse at the hands of both her mother and her father. It is difficult reading and I'm sure will be difficult but necessary watching. A few weeks ago I was listening to the radio and Monique talked about her role in this movie and how after certain takes it was hard for her to snap outta character, that's how deep in she was. Rumor has it she gives a stunning performance. We shall see. Below is a clip of Gabourey's audition.
