Lion, directed by Garth Davis and starring Dev Patel, Nicole Kidman and Rooney Mara tells the true story of Saroo Brierley, a young boy separated from his family in Calcutta at age five, and his journey to find them 25 years later.
Slumdog Millionnaire (2008) is the last great Dev Patel movie I saw. I’m sure there’s a handful I’ll get to soon, but I’d really like to start with Lion. Bring on the happy ending, I say. If only for all the other times when the real life endings are far from happy.
David Wenham, Tannishtha Chatterjee and Benjamin Rigby also star.
Lion Release Dates: October 12th, 2016 (UK); November 26th, 2016 (US)
Happy Film Loving,

Wow – excited for this. Love Rooney Mara, too.
Rooney is great. I’m still yet to watch Carol (2015) but I loved her in The Social Network (2010)
Carol is really, really great! I’m sure you’ll love it!
Thanks forth recommendation. I look forward to writing about it soon 🙂
