I taught Sapphire's Push in a literature course about a decade ago and never did it again, because it was such a brutal tale and I just didn't feel equipped to handle it in the classroom. If the film captures any of the essence of the novel, it will likely affect folk the same way. The trailer suggest that Mo'Nique gives the performance of a lifetime and I had to do a double-take to believe that the social worker was Mariah Carey. Financial backing by Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry and direction by Lee Daniels of Monster's Ball fame.
