Well, Tony, I agree with you on, "Winter's Bone," but, though I haven't seen

"Fish Tank," the plot is ridiculous in a way few Hollywood films would venture. It must be redeemed by the acting to have won Cannes and BAFTA awards. Many films are overwritten, creating scenes with unbelievable, fanciful actions and outcomes to make larger points. The worst films have many of them. On the other hand, in the best films, characters are illuminated in seemingly commonplace situations, there needn't be a crisis every minute.
I'll see "Fish Tank," but it really does seem like the plot's exaggerations may well have doomed it.
