Winter's Bone

This film is directed by Debra Granik starring Jennifer Lawrence, John Hawked, and Garret Dillahunt. This film mainly focuses on a 17 year old girl named Ree with a motive to find her meth-engaged father despite any circumstances. It's a very risky path that she goes down as she tries to seek the truth. Time isn't on her side when she's informed that her family will be turned to the Ozarks.

A very heart wrenching, realistic, grim, haunting film. The main role phenomenally acted by Jennifer Lawrence. In my opinion she's a very award worthy, talented actor. She can sell her part well, as well as well as being believable. What would it take for you to go all out for your kin? This movie answers that question. Even when her obstacles are life threatening she does what she can to take care of her mother, and her two younger siblings while trying to figure everything else out on her own.

She even takes a pretty nasty beating throughout her journey of finding her farther, which quickly angered me. This scene easily accessed my emotions to the point I felt as if I was playing the part of the anger she was supposed to have towards the people that did that to her. Movies such as this one grab my attention when someone young does what they can't to defend oneself or their kin. Very significant because we're taught to defend ourselves and our families. Surprising to see what one is capable of when it becomes a threat to their lives and their loved ones around them. Great film, Oscar worthy.
