Glass Castle, The

Terrific acting dominates this tense, engaging, factually based, 127-minute film based on Jeannette Walls's bestselling memoir that focuses on a New York gossip columnist (Brie Larson/Ella Anderson/Chandler Head), who is engaged to a wealthy financial analyst (Max Greenfield), as she reminiscences about her chaotic, dysfunctional life growing up with her three siblings (Josh Caras/Charlie Shotwell/Iain Armitage, Sarah Snook/Sadie Sink/ Olivia Kate Rice, and Brigette Lundy-Paine/Shree Crooks/Eden Grace Redfield) and her neglectful, alcoholic father (Woody Harrelson) and eccentric, artistic mother (Naomi Watts) who dragged the family around the country from one dilapidated house after another while evading the cops and social workers.
