Countryman's Elegy

First, let me explain that I watched the movie first, and then read the novel. Before reading the novel, I thought it was a story about the original family and self-growth, but after reading the novel, I found that this story is not the case.

The original novel has a high conception, and discusses the problem of American class solidification in a very profound way. The red movie avoids the heavy and far from the light, removes the representation of the society in the novel, and focuses...

The knot of the original family affects the next generation

The knot of a family of origin affects a generation and sees everyone struggling. Mother's hysteria, weakness, and lack of strength after trying to change again and again; the impact of the original family on people is more than material and education, it has put the possibility of our life in a framework from the beginning, and this framework has gradually been shaped. Your character, temper, emotions, values, right and wrong, and sense of security. As adults, we try to break...

[Film Review] Hillbilly Elegy (2020) 6.6/10

For Oscar fanatics, a film starring two most high-profile multiple-nominated, perpetual also-rans, Adams and Close (in toto they have accrued 13 nominations thus far), has only one tacit goal by default, so much so that, it overwhelms everything else, such is the case of Ron Howard's HILLBILLY ELEGY.

Adapted from JD Vance's autobiographical book, the film...

This rotten film, scolded by film critics, calmly tells the social reality of the bottom of the United States

The Elegy of the Countryman has not yet been released on Netflix, and the Internet is full of bad reviews from various film critics. As a ten-year fan of Amy Adams, I watched this movie for the first time. Stripped of American politics, if you just appreciate the narrative of the movie and the acting skills of the actors, The Elegy of the Countryman is still a movie worth recommending.

The story mainly has two time and story lines. The first one is about JD,...

Countryman's dirge or pastoral song?

One detail should not be overlooked when looking back on the Trump era in the future, and he has largely contributed to the prosperity of the publishing industry. The presidential team has a relatively high shuffling rate, and every former official can easily get a publishing contract and recall his far from long White House years, one of which hit the bestseller list one after another. But there is one super bestseller, not by a former official but by JD Vance, the underdog...

I happened to see a passage yesterday about the Memphis country people in the 1950s. They said that their faces were conscious striving, boundlessly optimistic, and "tough but fair". The same hillbilly, but a completely different mental...

Blowing the beard and staring at the loneliness, the script is too trivial, looking at the prototype video at the end of the film, several actors are still very restored, and the ins and outs of the characters are not explained clearly, which makes the characters' behavior of catching horses very...

I think Amy Adams is a bit hysterical, is it because of his acting skills that he can't get the...

It's boring, it doesn't have the tension of Howard's previous films at all, and Hans Zimmer's soundtrack is also very fast and...

Legend has it that the depiction of the bottom white people is distorted? 2021-02-20 / / The movie has three and a half stars, the performance is slightly worse, and it does not fully show the level of the original. But there is one place to add half a star, one is that the actor's degree of reduction to the real person is super high, almost exactly the same. The other is in the motel. The male protagonist finally figured it out. Everyone has their own problems. He can't save her mother by...
