Jennifer Lawrence Stars in Joy {+ Movie Giveaway} #JoyInsiders

April 14, 2016 by The Mom Jen 13 Comments

JOY is the wild story of a family across four generations centered on the girl who becomes the woman who founds a business dynasty and becomes a matriarch in her own right. Betrayal, treachery, the loss of innocence and the scars of love, pave the road in this intense emotional and human comedy about becoming a true boss of family and enterprise facing a world of unforgiving commerce. Allies become adversaries and adversaries become allies, both inside and outside the family, as Joy’s inner life and fierce imagination carry her through the storm she faces. Oscar® Winner* Jennifer Lawrence stars in Joy with fellow Oscar® Winner Robert De Niro**, Bradley Cooper, Edgar Ramirez, Isabella Rossellini, Diane Ladd, Virginia Madsen, Elisabeth Röhm and Dascha Polanco. Like David O. Russell’s previous films, Joy defies genre to tell a story of family, loyalty, and love. Joy arrives in stores on Blu-ray™, 4K Ultra HD, DVD May 3, 2016

This is a great film for girls night in, mother/daughter movie night, or a date night! For an added dose of JOY, check out this exclusive clip featuring director, David O. Russell.

*Jennifer Lawrence, Best Actress, JOY, 2016, 2012; Actress, Silver Linings Playbook.
