Winter's Bone

Toy 2021-11-29 08:01:20

A movie that is so dull to even boring, it shines brightly because of Lawrence's acting skills.

His father escaped from drug trafficking, and the 17-year-old female protagonist had a crazy mother and younger siblings.

The movie is full of a strong will to survive, a tenacious and indifferent, calm to death temperament in the desperate situation.

As the backbone of the family, he bears heavy burdens and negotiates with drug dealers calmly and rationally.

Life forces us to be the strongest.

"Never open your mouth to ask for something from others. If others are willing to give you, you don't want them, they will give it; if others don't want to give you, even if they ask, they won't give it."
Self-esteem is support in desperation. The toughest reason to go down.

Two stars for the movie and one star for the big cousin.

    Gail: He never says why not to me, Ree, he just says no.

    Ree: Man, it's so sad to hear you say he won't let you do somethin' and then you *don't* do it.

    Gail: It's different once you're married.

  • 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.
