The style of the movie “Precious” is just like a Bildungsroman, describing the development of the protagonist's mental status from childish to mature, gain the courage and grow. Just like the film points out at the end that Precious decide to leave the home and start a newborn life. She have a determination which she want to study further, enter college, get a job, and raise the children by her own. It its totally different at the beginning. At first, she was just like nothing. Although she suffers from the domestic violence, raping, verbal violence, etc, she didn’t leave the “home.” Not until she gets a chance to have a “really” education, she has the courage to fight against and be more mature.
Precious in the movie mentions that life is hard. Life is short. Life is painful. Life is rich. Life is…Precious. It may be interpreted that maybe the world seem to leave you behind, as long as you do not give up, you can lead a different life, even for the helpless African American girl. Only by being precious your life, can people treasure you.
