I believe both are new, or at least relatively new to the movie industry, but both are real talents.
While the movie was a little dark with a challenging premise and some difficult scenes to watch, it was done very well and shows the strong familial relationships that exist in most families.
BTW, a really sad "thing" is that we saw it at 4:30 this afternoon and no one else was in the theater and we were told we were the first people to see the movie, period. That is a crying shame.
It is an excellent movie and I highly recommend that YOU see it.

Saw this today with an audience of about 15 other people. It is only showing at 1:25 PM at the Rialto but I found it an extremely well written, directed and especially acted movie. And the seats at the Rialto, at least in the Auditorium I was in (8), are quite new and comfortable. The Railto was the first theater I went to in Jun 2005 and I believe the only one open at that time and it has gone through a lot of improvements. I usually go to the Old Mill Playhouse or the Barnstorm Theater but
Room is worth a trip.
I recommend this as it is getting nominated for awards by many groups in various areas.
