The trailer for A Monster Calls made it to YouTube a few days ago and it’s a beautiful touching story. Don’t go by the name and think it’s a horror flick.
"A Monster Calls" -- starring Felicity Jones, Sigourney Weaver, Toby Kebbell, and Lewis MacDougall -- is based on the award-winning children's book by Patrick Ness, based on an idea by Siobhan Dowd, who died of cancer before she could write the fantasy novel herself. The story follows a boy named Conor (Lewis MacDougall) who struggles to cope with his mother's (Felicity Jones) terminal illness, as well as bullying at school; he begins to be visited by a monster who tries to help him by telling stories. The monster is voiced by Liam Neeson.
