“The Glass Castle” is a well made film that features great performances by Naomi Watts, Brie Larson and particularly that of Woody Harrelson. It is hard to believe that this is the same actor who played Woody on the tv series, ‘Cheers.’ Very few comedic actors can successfully pull off serious roles but he has more than proven himself, especially in this past year alone. Not only is he great in this film but he is superb in the indie ‘art’ film “Three Billboards...”. This is an entertaining film that tells the true story of a woman whose parents lived less than conventional lives, always moving after a few months when the dad loses his job or is on a hunt for another adventure. It is a hard to watch film at times because of what the kids in the family go through but it is a great story of how someone can overcome adversity and make something of themselves.
