"Winter's Bone" and "Please Give"
Posted by Postal Grunt on June 26, 2010 at 19:50:18:
The Mrs. and I saw "Please Give" last week based on a few reviews that said it was a good, off beat movie. It's an interesting way to escape the summer heat without being subjected to car chases and multiple explosions. There weren't any teenagers at the showing so that might help some decide on whether to go or not.
"Winter's Bone" is definitely a worthwhile way to spend an hour and forty five minutes of your time. The lead actress, Jennifer Lawrence, portrays a teenage heroine on the trail of her bail bond skipping, meth cooking father back into the way back hills of the Missouri Ozark mountains south of Branson, MO. It's dark, relentlessly grim, and captivating. This isn't a feel good, popcorn burning movie of summertime fluff. Don't wait for it to come out on Netflix before you see this movie.
