Lion is a 2016
awards season film about a young boy, Saroo, in India who gets accidentally
separated from his home and eventually adopted by a family in Australia and his
quest, as an adult, to find his family again. The film is directed by Garth
Davis and stars Dev Patel, Nicole Kidman, David Wenham, Rooney Mara, and Sunny
Pawar. Overall, I didn’t enjoy the film but it has some qualities that might
redeem it and make it worthwhile for some audience members.
