Hillbilly Elegy 2020
This is such a strange film. I kept expecting it to be good because of Close and Adams but it really wasn't. Just got a sense that nobody felt very comfortable. It's weird to see a challenging life portrayed without much understanding of humanity. Empty and vacuous, Amy Adams' character particularly was so badly drawn and she is a real person so no excuse!! No insight or even empathy,she just seemed a burden...I could go on. Have to admit it's difficult not to be swayed by the unlikeability of Vance himself, I hold my hands up to that but still a very poor film

Such an intriguing premise and made me think about village life and the relationships of people who are randomly thrown together by location of birth and yet become the most important people in each others life even though their interests and passions may be wildly different. Thought-provoking and very funny.
