The director bet against Jennifer Lawrence

The film's female director, Debra Grannick, once said about the original novel: "Unlike ordinary popular books that rely on funny language and exaggerated stories to attract people, 'Winter's Bones' is a quiet, profound Fiction." Basically, those two adjectives have properly explained my afterthought, which means that the director has successfully brought out the flavor of the novel. The scenes of the whole film are all bleak and desolate, and there is almost no soundtrack. It is completely dominated by the camera and acting.

The director bet on the treasure of Jennifer Lawrence, checked the information, and found that Jennifer Lawrence was only 20 years old and was shocked. At such an age, she has such acting skills and has a promising future. The character Lei in the play is almost superhuman. Not only does she have to bear the burden of the family, but she also has to go out to clean up the hands left by her father. It can be seen that the tempering of her childhood environment has thoroughly tempered her stubborn and resolute character. Jennifer Lawrence is keeping Lei occasionally. In addition to the revealed weakness, it perfectly interprets the character's almost numb perseverance. Facing the family, she is between a loving mother and an older sister, and when she is facing the fierce and mysterious relatives outside, she is just an unarmed girl. That is a very clever transformation. After Lei was beaten and sent home Afterwards, before going to bed, he did not forget to tell his friends to supervise the homework of his younger brothers and sisters. The natural tone was as if Lei was really a mother, and even if the sky fell, the family members were still the first.

The subject matter of the story actually made me feel quite fresh. Although I still have doubts in many places, I have an intuitive understanding of the western country gangsters. On the surface, they are ferocious and evil, but in fact, I still have feelings in my heart, but the way of expression is rather sloppy. The wicked woman played by Dale Dickey in it, her ferocity is not only revealed on the surface, but slowly transitions her emotions after repeated persuasion to Lei, but no matter how cruel her expression is, she finally suppresses the panic panel for the benefit of Lei's family. He sawed off his two hands with his face, which is considered an actor who personally thinks that the acting is better after Jennifer Lawrence in the film.

Without the use of sensational music offensive, I feel that this film is particularly pure. The reason why the film is a film is still based on "acting". This is a successful example.

    It feels very RPG, the climax is the teardrop when the girl in the lake dies
