Spring ushered in a cold world

The ending song is nice.

Nominated for Best Actress and Original Screenplay at the 81st Academy Awards.

It is a very good-looking film. With the deepening of the plot, the family background of the protagonist and the explanation of the past events are gradually understood.

The ensuing development takes place in a completely depressing atmosphere, with the audience holding their breaths for the doomed tragic ending.

However, no one would have expected that in such a cold world, there will finally be a spring-like expectation.

Such a seemingly bland, yet climaxing film is really a masterpiece.

It's just that none of the actors are first-tier superstars. In other words, I don't have a single familiar face that I know.

Worth a look.

    Two years ago, this small production helped Melissa Leo be nominated for the Oscar finals as a dark horse, but compared with her performance in "The Fighter", which helped her become Oscar's best supporting actress this year, the former's performance was slightly heavier. The performance of the female supporting actress Misty Upham in this film is also not inferior, and the two actresses' opposite scenes are the best part of this film. One of Sundance's masterpieces dedicated to the film industry in the past ten years.

    The plot setting and dramatic line design are all bright spots. Leo's voice is penetrating.
