Brie Larson won the Best Actress Oscar for this performance.
Honestly one of the best Oscar-winning performances I’ve seen.
Did she do her own stunts for this one too? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hoo boy..... Oscars..... Yeesh
@@natecloe8535 you know they were joking with each other right?
@@natecloe8535 you guys are still on that? 💀 grow up
Keep crying, Nick. It’s part of your beauty; you’re human.
Good man 🥲🥺💞🇦🇺.
From what I remember, Brie Larson really did a lot of research for this role. Spoke to psychologists to learn more about that type of trauma and isolated herself for a month to get into that mindset.
She really gave this role her all and definitely deserved that Oscar
Oh wow...
👁👄👁 that is an awful lot of work .... cool! That is some dedication.
@@Spidey34_35 yeah she said she didn't want to talk to victims because she felt it wasn't her place to ask them about their experiences and that was a huge invasion of privacy.
Wow shes a wonderful actress
🤨
Nick, your empathy and emotions come across so strongly, you're so incredible! Don't ever apologize for showing them or crying, it is so nice to see this kindness. The people in your life are lucky to have you!
Very well said 😊👏👍
Agreed and also liked this because this is not a 666 comment
This film is why I can’t take anybody seriously when they say Brie Larson can’t act, just because Captain Marvel disappointed. She’s a freaking talent and deserved her Oscar win. ❤️ And this was Jacob Tremblay’s breakout role and I’m so happy both are continuing to work. ^-^
Agree 💯% with What you said
If you mean "disappointed" on a personal individual level, that's valid because art is subjective. If you mean "disappointed" in a financial or popcultural sense, you're high; CM was a huge hit and had decent critical reception.
Captain Marvel did not disappoint. That was a good movie. There are just haters trying to bring it down and I don't really know why.
@@HobGungan I meant disappointed in regards to critical/audience reception. Critical reception was positive, but not nearly as positive as other MCU movies at that time. That’s why I specifically chose the term “disappointed”. A coworker friend of mine actually made a really interesting observation after he watched all the MCU movies in timeline order. Captain Marvel is much better if you think of it as a Phase 1 film.
@@Little1Cave Probably because it shouldn't have taken a decade for them to put out a female-led movie.
The interviewer wasn't prepared at ALL to talk with a victim of kidnap and sexual abuse. No one who is really prepared would ask those questions 🤦🏻♀️
The worst example of "if it bleeds, it leads" news-as-entertainment approach to "journalism."
@@Otokichi786 That's a legitimate approach in journalism?! Jeez.
That part made me so angry. Just. The victim blaming and trying to make Jack's situation her fault. Apart from the obvious idiocy of suggesting she should have trusted her kidnapper and rapist with her newborn baby. Just the worst. Though it is, unfortunately, an accurate representation of misogyny in the media. Guaranteed, when this happens in real life, some 'journalist' somewhere will alway say something like this.
@@alexandradavies6669 Yes, completely disrespectful with that poor girl. After everything she have been through now she has to hear things like that.
You are missing the point of it entirely.
The interviewer is the stereotypical heartless journalist character looking for a memorable gotcha moment where she catches someone out on live TV.
In reality any ethical producer would have had a heart attack if the interviewer did this - especially if they were not 100% certain that such questions were covered by the contract.
Incredible movie. Great vid!
Yooo thanks so much I watch all your videos if I have seen the movie! Your commentary is hilarious😂
Great film, really sad to think about all the women in various places in the world locked in similar situations right now.
And children. Human trafficking is said to be more profitable than guns and drugs. 💔
If you want to cry again, watch The Impossible. My most favorite movie based on a true story. It's just way too good. Imagine, Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor. And you know the new Spiderman kid? Tom Holland? That was his debut.
Yes, that movie gave me chills and made me bawl happy tears.
Oh that's such a great one. I've watched it multiple times. And little Tom Holland is so impressive!
Yeah. I wanted the kid from that movie to be nominated for an Oscar. Years later after seeing Spider-man I looked Tom Holland up on IMDb I almost fainted when I realized he was that kid. THE IMPOSSIBLE is a great recommendation.
Such a good movie!
That movie is INCREDIBLE!
I remember the first time I watched it and I was sobbing too. The bit that got me was when Jack returned to Room and how small it actually was set in. Like thinking back to the opening section and how the camera work showed Room from Jack’s perspective and then the harsh reality of it’s actually size. Amazing film
30:08 is always the moment for me. I'm sure, I've watched and rewound this moment the most often. And the German dub sucks so bad by comparison. 😅
I just gotta point that out.
Because I usually often advertise for German dubs.
But not for this moment.
Room is based on the novel of the same name by Emma Donoghue, which is inspired by the real Fritzl case in Amstetten, Austria. The real incident is a lot more horrifying, and the abuse is done by a family member for over 24 years, with the victim bearing seven children during her captivity.
@Lacy Tastingx her own father and the situation was way worse than what was depicted in the movie. in the real case, the room was under the real house and had multiple doors to enter. this meant that she was living under her mother and other family without them knowing.
@Lacy Tastingx her father trapped her down underneath the house for 20+ years. He got away with it by making her write a note saying she ran away to join a cult. He was very obsessed with her since she was little and the whole reason he trapped her down there was bc she wanted to move out. He only got caught bc one of the seven kids got really sick and she begged him to take her to a hospital. It's a long and horrific story with so much to go into. Christina Randell goes into it very well.
Yes there's a movie that shows that version it's a lifetime movie it's called girl in the basement
@@shavillewright5557 you
@@zoeybeukema that movie Girl in the Basement is both heartbreaking and beautiful
From memory, Brie Larson went into self isolation for months to prepare herself for this role. No internet, no phone, no contact with outside. She did an incredible job.
Room is also based on a true story about a woman who was kidnapped as a teen and kept in a shed.
Embrace the emotions, my dude. Glad you enjoyed the movie!
Yes especially her point of view was more disgusted by the place but she really gave everything so Jack could feel good. That’s why I think when she was finally out you could tell her feeling and behaving a bit childish as well since she had to be a motherly though figure in room.
Also since she was kidnapped as a teenager, she would have been pretty emotionally stunted so it's no surprise she appeared quite childish, especially during confrontations with her mom
What’s terrifying is that it’s inspired by the real-life case of Elisabeth Fritzl. Her story is so horrifying and so is the thought that many women all over the world live this way. It also reminds me of the Ariel Castro kidnappings, he kidnapped and held 3 women captive for YEARS, he also r@ped them and had a child with one of them. He was sentenced to life plus 1,000 years in prison, but killed himself a month later.
And yknow for the Ariel Castro one, how his first victim was like his martyr. He kicked her so she'd lose her babies, he gave her a puppy just to kill it several months or years afterwards just to break her spirit. How once, she lost her child pretty late in the pregnancy and he showed her her dead baby and guilt-tripped her for the death of the baby. He would allow her to watch tv so that she'd see that nobody was looking for her (because her mom is a bitch and thought her daughter had run away and didn't do ANYTHING, contrary to the two other girls' families). All of these three women had such different relationships with the man, it's such an "interesting" case on a psychological point of view but it's just so sad and it's so crazy that human beings can be so vile and cruel and feel no remorse doing things like these to others. (and to think NEIGHBORS saw the girls and did nothing. And the ones who did, like report screaming coming from the house, were never listened by the police... it's just such a waste, this whole story). Michelle Knight was held captive in this house for 18 years, imagine the damage. And yet, barely anyone speaks her name now. Truth is, in the perspective of the movie as I interpreted it and as I feel Joy interpreted it, Jack was starting to be in real danger. I feel like Big Nick would have gotten rid of the child at some point because he was too noisy and started "affecting" his """""comfort""""" with Joy who was much more submissive already. So the part with the journalist is actually one of the most interesting ones: because without Jack, she would have never dared doing the moves that saved her life. She did it because she felt her son was in danger, and for no other reason. Just like, tbh in the Ariel Castro's case, Amanda Berry's daughter is literally the main reason these girls are free today.
Room is incredible because it delved into trauma and Joy and Jack's personal experiences. It doesn't show Big Nick being arrested, it doesn't show the trial, because that's not "what matters" in the story. That's the sensational part and that's not what the story wants to talk about. It takes its time, building all the characters' emotions, from their fear when they prepare their escape, to their adrenaline-rush like joy at the moment, then the afterwards. The anger, the sadness, the "I should feel this but I don't" part of the journey. I've never really seen or read about kids being born in these conditions, testifying about how they've grown up once they were freed from these environments, I hope one day one of these real life children will get to express themselves, maybe it could help, but the way the movies does it is just really touching. I also really love how the movie portrayed the parents. Happy, but not flawless. These seven years, they've suffered through it too, and the dad not being able to talk to Jack or "love" him at first is such a flawed but real thing: how do you deal, it's your grandson yes, but it's the son of the man who r*ped your daughter. The grandma was so nice and compassionate, but also Joy's resentment towards her parents is so legit. I mean, everything felt so raw and real in all of this. I've watched this movie once because it's "too much" to handle, but it's a movie that sticks with you. And the whole thing is a matter that is not explored enough: take the case of Colleen Stan, how there are people out there who actually believe she was WILLINGLY staying with her kidnapper/abuser...
@@MARYWTHER Forgive the late reply, but the same way Joy probably felt Jack was in danger now that he was getting older and inevitably more of a threat, she also intuitively knew it wasn't safe to trust Old Nick to bring him to a hospital like the interviewer suggested. Jack is living evidence of Old Nick's crimes and it would've been easy for him to simply eliminate the risk of someone potentially discovering who Jack's parents were.
Really? Reminded me of Jaycee Lee Dugard.
@@ramana95 that’s sad, that we can be reminded of different cases, shows that this happens more than it should. It’s terrifying.
Is she the one who was held captive by her own father?
I watched this movie for the first time when I was 13. I cried the entire time! Brie Larson does an excellent job portraying what life is like after being rescued. I feel like a lot of movies end with the captor being caught and few show what happens next. I couldn't imagine the amount of confusion, anger, and depression that comes when trying to reenter society. This was a great reaction!
The argument between the mom and daughter in front of Jack gives me chills every time especially her loosely apologizing for not being a “nice” person anymore because being nice got her kidnapped.
I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH. Empath to empath; cry it out brother.
I'm always wary of people who call *themselves* empaths
@@thewinner7382 go for it. Understandable. Love you all the same 🥰
This movie just shows how Much the MCU underused Bries acting talent. I just hope they do her more justice in the sequel since she can act, she isn't the stiff and emotionless person that the MCU made her out to be. I hope the directors and writers learned that lesson!
"Stiff and emotionless" that's the character.....she's an alien
It was less her acting talent and FAR more that literally none of the cast and crew with the half exception of Samuel l. Jackson liked her AT ALL.
Watch any interview with her and any cast member. More than once she was hit with eye rolls, "don't touch me's," and awkward laughter. She was a big fan of running her male coworkers (superior actors to the rest of us) into the ground. She was VERY outspoken about Marvel fans being incels, and got mocked mercilessly by the cast and crew ON CAMERA for claiming she was the only Marvel actor that did her own stunts.....a LIE.
Let's not forget that when she won an Oscar from some feminist movie she didn't thank anyone........just got up and bad mouthed male movie critics and male audience members.
They had to use her as little as possible. The cast insisted and the fans made clear she was not welcome in that phase. NOBODY wanted Brie Larson to RUIN 5je largest film series endeavor in history. She showed up 3 movies before the end of Thanos' plot line and damn near ruined EVERYTHING. I'm just glad Marvel made a decent decision and made the Captain Marvel movie skipable while still understanding the plot at large and only gave her 2 big scenes elsewhere and that's it.
You know not every good dramatic actress will be good in every role. I think Brie simply made the wrong acting decisions and the bad performance in the MCU is her fault.
@@thewinner7382 but what about her blatant hatred for males? Especially male coworkers.
She is a sub par actress with a chip on her shoulder and a terrible attitude.
@@thewinner7382 thats what a director is for. They wanted her to act this way.
Such a great movie and unforgettable performances from Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay. And don't you ever be self conscious of your tears. Authenticity in these reactions are what make them so enjoyable to watch, and you putting yourself out there in this way is a special thing. We love and appreciate you all the more when you're being your true self! 💛
As much as the dad ignoring the kid annoyed me, I understood it. Because when he looked at the boy it was a constant reminder of the guy who destroyed his life.
well, it's selfish, i think the character of brie is the one who had his life destroyed in a way i understand it's hard on the father but the mother was able to handle this whole story in a much more contained way so why not him ?!
@@justlive2809 I didn’t say it wasn’t. I just said I understood what his emotions and sympathize with him
@@RandomOne1999 i guess 😊
Still selfish, he needs to go to therapy and not take his issues out on a child bc it’s not Jacks fault for simply existing. Being brought into existence thru a terrible act but he didn’t ask for it.
@@lilweedsea again, I didn’t say it wasn’t. I just said I understood it
Room is the best movie I will never rewatch.
Also, your emotions are why I watch you! Keeping it all bottled up for the sake of looking tough is useless. Keep on keeping on.
I know that plan was risky but she was desperate. He had been out of work for 6-8 months. She was worried that with no money coming in he would either kill them or let them starve to death.
Your emotion is the main reason I watch your channel. You’re not afraid to show your raw feelings for what you watching and that’s different from all these other movie commentary people. Don’t change that!
Please don’t apologise for crying; seeing you react with such emotion makes your videos great to watch, it shows you’re genuinely into the movie and that’s wonderful.
This movie always gets me, I have only seen it a couple of times because of how hard it hits every time, it’s so good though.
This is one of my favorite movies and Brie deserves the oscar she got for this one. Loved your reaction to it. I also couldn't stop crying watching it, I just was crying non stop after 20min of the movies. But it's really intelligent, to show how even after being free she was still captive of her trauma, until she actually went to get treatment. Also the interview broke me, seriously. Harsh realism.
Jacob Tremblay is one of the most realistic boy performers EVER! Him and Brie killed it. XD
Don’t ever apologize for getting teary-eyed because I did almost every single time you did. That’s not something to be ashamed of in a movie like this
Saw this movie in the Theatre with my wife. New it was going to be emotional when I saw people show up with Kleenex box! During the escape scene all I heard was people sobbing all around the theatre 😂
Don't worry about those who think you are "overdoing" it. Some people aren't used to seeing emotion. Which is really weird...especially when considering a movie this emotional.
The questions the interview asked were absolutely uncalled for. Joy kept him safe and out of "Nick's" eyes for the majority of his 5 years. He SURVIVED for 5 years. What would happen if she asked "Nick" to take him to the hospital? There is no guarantee he would be safe. NONE. You are asking a survivor the worst case scenario when they have PTSD. Her mother should have stepped in the second her questions got out of line. The lawyer spoke up once. WHY DIDN'T HE DO THAT WITH THAT QUESTION AND JOY'S OBVIOUS DISCOMFORT.
William H. Macy and Joan Allen (the parents) also played husband and wife in “Pleasantville”, highly recommended if you haven’t seen it already. Also stars Tobey Maguire as well as Reese Witherspoon and Paul Walker early in their careers.
Yes I second this choice!
Agreed, Pleasantville's a great, underrated movie. :)
I read this book and s o b b e d. Then I watched the movie and still it wrenched my heart out.
You might like "Wonder". It's also with the little boy, Jacob Tremblay. It's a true story about a boy who looks different than other children and goes to school for the first time. Very emotional film, but really good!
I love that movie
The first time I saw this movie my sobs were like PRIMAL. Anyone who has seen this movie would never think you were acting in your reaction. I wouldn’t have wanted anyone to witness me seeing this for the first time 😂 so thank you for sharing your vulnerability and experience with us. It’s a powerful one.
Haha primal is a good definition. I’m a guy who’s rarely crying but this movie broke me. I was literally crying 90% of this movie.
And it made me immediately send a message to my mum about how much I love her and thankful I am
@@95Silvan no literally. I remember being the only one in the theater, because they have $5 Tuesdays & it wasn’t a big blockbuster so no one was there. I had a full on existential crisis that day 😂 I’ll never forget it. I walked out of the theater, tears streaming down my face, mascara all over, and the theater worker with their dustpan holding the door for me as I walked out like “are you good?” 😂 and to that worker, no I was not good. Hahahahahaha
The realisation of the long and enduring trauma of their situation is totally gut wrenching
I wish we had more people like you in the world, Nick. Compassion like yours is becoming increasingly rare and it’s so great to see it hasn’t disappeared completely. This movie is super intense and I knew it would affect you deeply. As others have mentioned, Brie Larson earned a MUCH deserved best actress Oscar for her performance in this film. She has mad skills and I think she is so often underappreciated.
This movie is really emotional and it's great to see such a pure reaction.
It took me a few times to realise, but Old Nick actually rips the paper from Jack’s hand and takes it with him, that’s why they couldn’t find the info about Ma :)
This movie is so emotional & beautiful! I hope you can react to “Girl Interrupted” one day too! Great reaction.
There's nothing wrong with having empathy for others Nick.
I could never watch this movie because I already knew what it was about, being based off of a true story, (and unfortunately many other true stories) and is really triggering for me. But I was able to watch it through your reaction. Thank you.
BTW- that interview is a prime example that at the end of the day, the blame is always placed on the woman and the mother. The bar for women is crazy high compared to how it ever will be for men. This movie was based off a book that mirrored a real case where a woman by the name of Elizabeth Fritzl who was kept in a dungeon inside her childhood home by her father at the the age of 18. She gave birth unmedicated to 7 children, one who did die shortly after birth. She was finally free with her children in her 40’s.
Jesus christ I thought you were watching Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" from 2003 and that thumbnail CONFUSED me
Hard to imagine this is based off of a true story, too.. the fritzl case.
oh shoot I'm logged in on my father's youtube account lmfaoo ignore this comment please so he doesn't get bugged with notifications
Inspired by it, not directly based on it.
Seeing you cry was beautiful. It’s so human seeing these stories. Thank you for giving a raw reaction.
You are such a beautiful soul. I can't. We can all see that your reactions are real and come from the heart. I really want you to know that you are wonderful. And you burst with good energy that it is calming AND addicting. Bless you, Nick!
Somebody get this man to watch, The Color Purple. Thanks for another great video.
THIS
When I saw that you were gonna react to this I started laughing because I just knew you were gonna cry through the whole movie
I remember I watched Room as a surprise pre-release in my local cinema. I was just sitting there pressing my thumbs that they somehow make it out of there.
I live in Germany and a few years earlier, in 2006, we had a real case like this where Natascha Kampusch was trapped for many years like that somewhere in Austria. Her story is shown in the movie 3069 Days, if someone is interested.
That is the real tragedy behind movies like this. You can pretty much say for sure that all the sick stuff shown in movies has happened or is happening somewhere around the world to someone.
I can only thank the guy with the dog who grasped the seriousness of the situation and called the cops when Jack was screaming for help.
i actually wonnit to comment and tell him to watch 3069 days sometime if he is intrested.
You should watch The Florida Project!
Seen it, loved it!
I've seen this movie like three times but I still get anxious at the escape scene.
DOnt mind me just crying the entire time i watch this. This movie is so amazingly heartbreaking
This is what I loved about Brie Larson before she became a celebrity. This is the acting ability she has that surpasses what Marvel is giving her.
Nick - please accept that, at least those of us who watch a lot of your reactions, like you and your reactions JUST the way they are! :)
There are so many reaction channels on YT, but the reason we keep returning (or at least for me) is the exact aspect of your personality that you keep apologising for!
I love that you’re so open, that you are often so full of awe and wonder, sorrow and tears... I come here for your enormous ability for empathy, which makes your reactions so lovely to watch
This made me cry so much. When I first watched it I could barely finish this movie. Just wondering have you seen “your name” and “Silent voice”?
Haven’t yet!
@@nickflix8657 You should!!! I love them both soo much! And I really hope that you’ll react to them! I would love to heard your comments on them! Just a little heads up if you watch “Silent voice”, it would have some heavy topics. And make sure both of them are subbed please~
This movie was hard to watch the first time I saw it, now I have a son of my own and it's honestly unbearable. It's a beautiful film though.
Men hej på dig. Detta är Kajsa Svensson som var på VFU hos er i Alvestad! Hoppas allt är bra!

The face in the thumbnail.💔
Amazing reaction! Don’t feel ashamed about how you feel think lots of us don’t get as emotional as you but we can see you are being true with your emotions. The most important thing for a reactor to have is honest reactions and you got it bro! Never change.
We are all crying here with you 💙💙💙
Don't hide your emotions Nick. That's why I love your reactions and I think it shows a lot of people, especially men that is ok to cry, to express your emotions and not feel ashamed of it :)
Jacob Tremblay is on another level good in this film for a child actor.
Please react to GoodFellas
This movie is simply SUBLIME!! I cried from beginning to end when I saw it. The performances are excellent and touch your heart. 10/10!!!
Room and Mad Max Fury Road were my two favorite movies of 2015. I’ve never seen Captain Marvel but Brie Larson is fucking fantastic in this
2 great picks! mad max fury road is one of my favorites of all time.
My favorite films of 2015:
1. "Spotlight", "Room" (TIE)
3. "Mad Max: Fury Road"
4. "Tangerine"
5. "Straight Outta Compton"
The impossible is a MUST SEE
"Room" and "The Secret of NIMH" in the same day? You're just the gift that keeps on giving, aren't you?
Usually I’m not a „cryer“ at all but this movie broke me. I was crying 90% of these 2 hours. This movie is so dramatic and unbelievable hurtful but at the same time the tears came for happiness I felt for them and for their strong bond. It’s just so heartbreaking. My tears are rolling again just by seeing your reaction...
This movie hits me hard every time I watch it, truly a masterpiece and one of the most deserved best actress wins ever! If you want more tears, watch Marley and Me if you haven't already, it broke me so bad I can barely force myself to rewatch it
What's really sick is that this was inspired by a true story...
The interviewer was so insensitive, like holy shit they were so terrible, I was internally screaming the entire time.
Also great reaction, never feel bad for showing emotions, they are what make us human.
You should also react to The Lovely Bones!
AGREED
Omg yes that movie is so freaking sad
Sad movies with a lot of impacts are Lovely Bones and Prayers for Bobby. They always make me cry but they also hold powerful messages. QAQ
The interview was so wrong
Omg the questions was very disrespectful
Hatchi A Dog's Tale is another one that is very emotional.
I cried so much through this and made the mistake of showing it to a room of seniors at a nursing home. It was a room full of sobbing old people. Thankfully they liked the movie!
Hatchi is one of the movies that makes me cry
PLEASE react to the lovely bones if you haven’t watched it yet, this and Room have some similar vibes imo
you should watch Before I Wake. This kid is in it. Amazing little actor. and great movie
I lived at a boarding school. It took ten minuts for me to get there from the bus stop, but it was very scary in the winter because it was dark quickly and there was no one in the streets. And everytime i walk from the bus stop i thought what if someone will attack me. And this movie doesn't eas my worries
Somebody give him a happy movie to watch! He needs it after this one!
If you want to see more Brie Larson (as well as a continuously amazing performance from Toni Collette), check out the series "United States of Tara".
Yup, was about to write this :)
Omg don't worry about crying dude let's be honest we all cried during that movie. I remembered watching it when I was in my early teenage years (like 13/15 maybe). And as much as I cried I forgot about it, I think just in order to function I had to forget about it. I'm now 19 and I'm a lot into true crimes and I know multiples cases of kidnapping when the kidnapper keep their victims for years. I also saw one of the worst cases when the victim was captive for 20 something year and beared the children (7 I think) of her captivator who was her father. It's during that case that I heard of that movie again and it all came back to me and I had to watch it again. I'm a really teary guy and one of my bro is 5 right now so I watched that movie and just couldn't stop crying from the beginning to the end and even after. Also a lot of journalists were insulted during my watch sorry for the journalists that do their jobs respectfully but really? Those questions? The harassment? If you don't respect the victims you shouldn't even try to have an interview!
wait how did you not realize they were trapped in there until like 20 minutes into the movie
I was just finishing up working for the day on uni work and you posted! This'll be a great way to wind down!! I haven't seen this movie in so long, hope you enjoyed it since I'm commenting before I watch lmao
Yep it’s a tear jerker. Written in the perspective of the little boy in the book. But when you think of the girl who were locked up and this happened to them. It’s such an emotional film. Bc it leaves you with the what would you do?
This is the first time I've ever seen your channel and had zero idea going in what it would be like at all, except for a movie reaction.
I am stunned how beautifully you presented yourself and how genuine you are. You are an absolute sweetheart and your reaction and comments showed me a lot about you.
Thank you for opening yourself up for us. (I have seen Room so was hoping you reacted like I did too).

Finally someone reacting to one of my all time fav movies on YT! Great reaction!!!
The actress who plays Joy's mom reminded me of another movie she was in, that you could also check out: Stephen King's "A Good Marriage" from 2014. She was great in that.
Joan Allen, wonderful actress.
This was the first thing I saw Brie Larson in and I was so impressed by her acting chops. I never understood people talking about her performance in Captain Marvel like it wasn't a creative choice.
Exactly. The character of Carol Danvers in the movie was that she didn't know she was human or who she was and was being trained to be emotionless. So of course she wasn't emoting much. People who complain about her being a poor actress because she wasn't showing emotions there don't realize her character was supposed to be suppressing emotions.
@@chrissyjoy08 It was also because they misquoted her after she said she cared more about girls and women of colour liking "Wrinkle in Time" than old white reviewers, which was soon twisted to "she hates white men", "she hates veterans"and "she wants all men dead".
I love that you're not afraid to cry bro 💯 Real men cry and feel for others!
I’m honestly obsessed with this kid. Everything he has been in is amazing, he’s a great actor I can’t wait to see what he does when he gets into his teen and adult years!
Your reactions made me sob through this entire video. It was like watching the movie all over again.
Watched this for the first time on a plane, broke me into pieces.
What a sweet soul you have🥺. This movie is so traumatizing! Loved your reaction😊
A great review.
Emma Donoghue has always made it clear that "Room" (either the book or her screenplay) is not based on any particular 'real life' examples.
Rather, she was trying to capture the experience from Jack's point of view. This is probably clearer in the novel rather than in the movie.
I'm Canadian and the daughter of a CanLit teacher, so when Emma Donoghue's novel "Room" came out in 2010, I should have been one of those people who read it right away. But no, just as you reflect in your review, this is not a topic that anyone wants to think about, let alone read about.
But I did eventually read Emma Donoghue's novel, which is incredibly moving and thought-provoking. So when I heard that a film of "Room" was being released, I felt much the way as I initially did about the novel... reluctant.
But this film is amazing. As you noted, there is not a lot of "action" (in the physical sense) but emotionally, the action is non-stop.
Here is a 2020 interview from TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival) with Emma Donoghue (writer of both the novel and screenplay), Lenny Abrahamson (director), Brie Larson ("Ma") and Jacob Tremblay ("Jack") to commemorate "Room" winning TIFF's People's Choice Award in 2015.
(Jacob Tremblay would have been about 14 in this interview since he was 8 when "Room" was filmed in 2014.)

it's like Jack was the only thing that kept her. All Ma had was knowing she was a good mom that always put her kid first, but that woman had to go and destroy the only thing she had to hold on to. It's truly heartbreaking to watch.
You are a sensitive person and I so knew this movie would get to you.😏
Brie Larson is a great actress it's just Captain Marvel wasn't that great of a movie.
This was based on a true story btw, but in the real story she had 6 kids and was down there for 24 years
Anybody else think Nick is super cute?
I read this book in highschool and it was so good, the entire thing is from Jacks point of view, and I was worried when I first watched the movie it wouldn't be good, but it really is a wonderful adaptation. It captures most things from the book perfectly. The way they film the room, Jacks entire world, then at the end when he sees exactly how small it was, such perfect closure.
Oooh, can't wait to see the Secret of Nimh reation. I love that movie and book.
Also, I just found Fargo on Netflix, and both Fargo and Kumiko the Treasure Hunter on Amazon Prime, so they are there for when you are ready to do them :)
Coincidentally, William H. Macy, who played Joy's dad in Room, is also in Fargo.
