    Character Evaluation

    The story of the movie "Winter's Bone" is confusing   and confusing . Director Debra Granik pays attention to the bleak and self-improving daily life of ordinary people in small towns   . Her realistic portrayal techniques have allowed many American audiences to see a strange and strange American society around them . 
    In the movie "Leave No Trace", director Debra Granik used his meticulous presentation of emotions to reflect the tolerance of kindness, the preciousness of independence, the preciousness and sadness of love   . The film has no obvious dramatic conflict and plot tension in the narrative, but the feelings outlined in the details of life are very delicate   . Moreover, in this film, she uses a slow-release method of dripping the paper surface, showing a trace of the separation of values ​​and worldviews between father and daughter .

      Biting is not necessarily the cold winter, it may be life

      Tempted and tried,
      we
      are ofter made to wonder,
      but still confused.
      Why is should be thus
      ,
      All the day long.
      Never changed.
      While there are others,
      there are many,
      Living about us.
      With us,
      Never molested,
      never hurt,
      Though in the wrong,
      though astray.

      Farther along,
      farther,
      We'll know more...

    Winter's Bone quotes

    • Ree: He might be hangin' around with Little Arthur and them. You think?

      Teardrop: You don't wanna go around Little Arthur's askin' them people about anything they ain't offered to talk about. That's a real good way to end up et by hogs... or wishin' you was.

    • Merab: One of my nephews is Buster Leroy. Didn't he shoot your daddy one time?

      Ree: Yes, but that's got nothin' to do with me. They settle that stuff themselves, don't they?

      Merab: Shootin' him likely settled it.
