I didn't see the movie but I did read the book. I just didn't like Precious very much even as I got to know her. It's not enough to feel sorry for a character, I have to like them at least a little bit.
There's a sequel about Precious's son after she dies of AIDS. From reading the reviews and such it appears that Sapphire's main schtick is having horrible things happen to her characters and also having them do horrible things. It's almost like she is sadistic or something.
