Room - DVD Giveawy

It's no secret that I love books. It's also no secret that I love movies. I especially love movies based on books. I love it even more when they are done right. You may have heard me gush recently about the movie adaptation of Emma Donoghue's Room. I've gushed over Brie Larson's incredible performance as Ma (which just snagged her an Oscar for Best Actress) and her equally talented co-star Jacob Tremblay who gave, in my opinion, one of the best performances of 2015 as Jack. Their chemistry as mother and son is palpable, and the trust they had in each other is evident.

It's one of those rare adaptations that make you want your favourite novels to be made into movies. It's that rare occurrence where the emotions of the novel are effortlessly brought to life on the screen.

I knew I wanted to do something special for the DVD release of this movie, which is TODAY, as soon as I left the theatre. I was an emotional mess and, as strange as it sounds, I wanted to share that overwhelming feeling with everyone. This is a story that breaks your heart, but fills it too. It's the story of a mother's love for her son and the fierceness that comes with that love. It's a story of finding your strong even in the face of the unthinkable. It also happens to be the story of a boy discovering the world for the first time.

I cannot wait for someone else to fall in with this story, and for them to be entirely blown away by Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay's talent and commitment to this story.
