Winter's Bone

The overall plot is rather bland, and the lives of people in remote areas are not very interesting, but the rhythm of the progress is very appropriate, coupled with the excellent performances of the big cousin and other actors, it will not be boring, even if the first half is a bit annoying. I don't know what to say, but it can also make people watch it patiently, and then the story becomes clearer and clearer, and the truth is revealed layer by layer, which is somewhat chilling.

The tone of the movie is chilling and cold without giving pity. As an audience, all you can see in Ree is the tenacity born from being suppressed by life, the sadness drowned in the depths of the heart, and not much psychological comfort. And the useless sorrow is left to oneself who read other people's stories to experience.

Winter's Bone quotes

  • Gail: [after asking her husband to let her use his truck] He said no.

    Ree: Did you tell him I'd spring for gas?

    Gail: I told him. He still won't.

    Ree: Why not?

    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: It really must be. 'Cause you ain't never used to eat no shit.

  • 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.
