#27 - Winter's Bone (2010)

I'm getting down to the end of my list of 2010 movies that I need to see before compiling my "Best of" and "Personal Oscar choices" lists that I'll be sharing with you all in special blog posts.  Whee!

For today's blog, I'm going to do a Winter's Bone acrostic, because nothing says whimsy and poetry like this movie.

W is for Winter's Bone, the title of the movie. Three points for originality!
I is for Idyllic scenery.  Ain't got none.  There was a great pair of shacks, though!
N is for Nominations: it got four major Oscar nods.
T is for Takin' care of the kids, which J-Law is forced to do cause Daddy got hisself put in jail and that made Momma stop talking full stop.
E is for Eatin' squirrel meat.  Tasty and nutritious.
R is for Really good acting.  I mean, really good.
S is for Shootin' shit, which Lawrence does so well.

B is for Bail bondsman with a heart. Or banjo.  I couldn't decide.
O is for Ozarks, backward U.S.A.
N is for Neighbors.  Some of them were right neighborly.
E is for Ever'body so po'.

So, was it top-10? You'll just have to wait and find out. ;)

Score: 8/10
