Room triumphs at the box office
The film, which shot in Canada and was directed by What Richard Did and Frank helmer Abrahamson, from a script by Irish author Emma Donoghue, racked up an amazing four Oscar nominations late last week. The script, acting and direction were all honoured, and the film itself was nominated for Best Picture. It's an astounding achivement for a small picture, and comes fresh of star Brie Larson's Golden Globe win for Best Actress.
She's definitely on course to pick up the Oscar at the end of February, also picking up the Critics Choice Award at the weekend alongside a special notice for young star Jacob Tremblay.
