Q&A with Brie Larson. Moderated by Mark Olsen, LA Times.
Short Term 12 is told through the eyes of Grace (Brie Larson, 21 Jump Street and Showtime's "The United States of Tara"), a twenty-something supervisor at a facility for at-risk teenagers. Passionate and tough, Grace is a formidable caretaker of the kids in her charge -- and in love with her long-term boyfriend and co-worker, Mason (John Gallagher Jr., HBO's "The Newsroom" and Tony Award-winner for Spring Awakening). This lovingly realized film finds truth -- and humor -- in unexpected places. The second feature from Destin Daniel Cretton (I Am Not a Hipster), Short Term 12 also stars Kaitlyn Dever (Bad Teacher), Rami Malek (The Master), and newcomer Keith Stanfield.
