This half term take home GIFTED, the funny, moving and heart-warming family-friendly drama that has it all; feel-good humour, laughter, friendship and romance! The chemistry between Chris Evans and McKenna Grace is heart-felt with a storyline that’s gripping throughout. Beautifully directed by Marc Webb (500 Days of Summer, The Amazing Spider-Man) GIFTED is both poignant and inspiring.
Frank Adler (Chris Evans) is a single man raising a child prodigy – his spirited young niece Mary (Mckenna Grace) – in a coastal town in Florida. Frank’s plans for a normal school life for Mary are foiled when the seven year old’s mathematical abilities come to the attention of Frank’s formidable mother Evelyn (Lindsay Duncan) whose plans for her granddaughter threaten to separate Frank and Mary. Octavia Spencer plays Roberta, Frank and Mary’s landlady and best friend. Jenny Slate is Mary’s teacher, Bonnie, a young woman whose concern for her student develops into a connection with her uncle as well.
GIFTED stars Chris Evans (Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Age of Ultron) and co-stars Mckenna Grace (Designated Survivor), Lindsay Duncan (Birdman, About Time), Jenny Slate (‘Parks and Recreation’, Obvious Child) and Academy Award® winner Octavia Spencer (Hidden Figures, The Help).
