Every so often, a film comes along that’ll touch you with its story. And, sometimes it’ll bring you to a land you never imagined. Lucky for us, A Monster Calls does both. It stars Felicity Jones, Sigourney Weaver, Lewis MacDougall, and Liam Neeson. Based off a novel, A Monster Calls is about a boy who must come to terms with his mother’s terminal illness. He befriends an unlikely companion who’ll help him deal with the situation.
Pop Culturalist is excited to partner with Focus Features and GoFobo to give away tickets to an advance screening!
About the Film
A visually spectacular and unabashedly emotional drama from director J.A. Bayona (The Impossible). 12-year-old Conor (Lewis MacDougall) is dealing with far more than other boys his age. His beloved and devoted mother (Felicity Jones) is ill. He has little in common with his imperious grandmother (Sigourney Weaver). His father (Toby Kebbell) has resettled thousands of miles away. But Conor finds a most unlikely ally when the Monster (portrayed by Liam Neeson in performance-capture and voiceover) appears at his bedroom window one night. Ancient, wild, and relentless, the Monster guides Conor on a journey of courage, faith, and truth that powerfully fuses imagination and reality.
