"Hillbilly Elegy" is a well-structured, memorable, and moving family epic film. Director Ronald William Howard cleverly used montages to let the audience see the life trajectory of the three generations of the Vance family
, and he always let the characters and actors dominate the film
. As long as Glenn Close brings an award-winning performance, the film will not lack vividness, she has skillfully and delicately interpreted the role of grandmother. Amy Adams also showed off her acting skills. Her performance is very skillful. She succeeded in preventing the audience from looking at the tragic protagonist Bev Vance with pity and fear
. Although some critics believe that the film has weakened the political color in the original work, the film is definitely still a moving film about family, about love, and about ordinary people like "country folks
."

There are a lot of things that touched me, and part of the reason may be that I just read Stranger in Homeland recently, so I have more understanding and empathy for the southern state. However, this is precisely the biggest problem with the adaptation of this film. In a polarized public opinion environment, especially in Hollywood, the stronghold of the left, everyone has no empathy for life in conservative towns, so the film needs more Instead of putting emphasis on the role of mother, it will give the audience the feeling that she is self-inflicted. The only reason given in the whole film is that she experienced the domestic violence of her grandfather against her grandmother, which is too unconvincing. What's more interesting than the film itself is that the film has a very low score on Rotten Tomatoes and MTC's media score, while the audience score is not bad, it's like an inverted version of the "Mulan" score.
