Winter's Bone (2010)

When will I learn that a film about poverty described with such adjectives as chilling, searing, rawest, gritty, genuine, shabby, grimly and unflinching, is not a film for me?

And I'm not sure the poor people of the Ozarks deserve their story to be told through the means of a rather dull mystery story either.

Jennifer Lawrence was superb but since she looks better with an axe:

than all greased up, it's sad she's yet another young actress who didn't say no.
