Frequently Asked Questions

What is The Glass Castle about? Toggle content

The Glass Castle is a poignant and unforgettable film that chronicles the life of Jeannette Walls, a successful journalist who grew up in a dysfunctional family of nomads. With an alcoholic father who distracted her and her siblings with magical stories, and a selfish, nonconformist mother who had no intention of raising a family, Jeannette learned to fend for herself from a young age. The film takes us on an unorthodox journey with Jeannette's family as they face poverty, FBI pursuits, and the challenges of growing up with an unstable father. Despite the hardships they face, the Walls children hold onto hope and their imagination as they strive to survive against all odds. Brie Larson delivers a powerful performance as Jeannette Walls in this moving adaptation of Jeanette Walls' best-selling memoir.
