Review of The Glass Castle (2017) by Dawdlingpoet — 24 Nov 2021

This is a sad watch - upsetting in parts due to the fathers actions, his aggression brought on by drinking. There were, I felt, some unanswered questions but the performances are quite solid, particularly those of Brie Larson and Woody Harrelson and it certainly didn't feel like a badly made film.

Its definitely a sobering watch, about the tough realities of a family struggling to get by both financially and as a family unit. Its a decent film, ultimately about the fragility of family life.
