The Glass Castle (2017)
A young girl is raised in a dysfunctional family constantly on the run from the FBI. Living in poverty, she comes of age guided by her drunkard, ingenious father who distracts her with magical stories to keep her mind off the family's dire state, and her selfish, nonconformist mother who has no intention of raising a family, along with her younger brother and sister, and her other older sister. Together, they fend for each other as they mature in an unorthodox journey that is their family life.

Wonderful character development!
This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Am I Missing Something?
The power and bond of family can be unbreakable! Enjoyed the heart and emotion of this movie. Excellent acting by Ella Anderson as young Jeanette.
The Glass Castle film is a defensible effect among the weak effects of its surroundings. A good camera with good director and a contemplative screenplay from the glass castle produced a great effect. Character characterization of the character of the girl as a hyacinth of resistance was a proper characterization The children remained as a brigade and did not come along with the footage, remained dumb in the offensive, and did not have the courage to say that this is a positive one! In general, the glass Castle of the film is defensible and should be seen
Raising children is not easy. Being a child growing up in an unstable relationship and general instability character wise (parents wise that is), is not easy either. This movie is not easy to watch is what I'm trying to say. But it is rewarding if you are into dramas and really good performances. The lines are blurred between good and bad, and what parenting is about and how or what you should learn from the usually most important people in your life.Woody Harrelson gives a powerhouse performance, which elevates but is also enhanched through the other great performances. As the saying goes, what doesn't kill you ... So if you like slow moving drama with a distraught time line, this is the one you may like
Based on a true story. So how can it be bad, right?
