Thread Name: Winter's Bone movie set in Ozarks, music
Subject: Winter's Bone movie set in Ozarks, music
I just read a movie review and watched the preview (New York Times) for a movie being released now called "Winter's Bone".
There is a video trailer here:
Winter's Bone movie preview
It sounds like the music in the movie is worth a listen.
A taste of the music is at the beginning of the preview.
"The topography of chilly hollows and ragged forests is filmed in a way that emphasizes its bleakness. There are banjos and fiddles, as well as guitars, and some beautiful old mountain ballads are performed on camera. Some of the cast members are nonprofessional actors, and nearly all are wary, watchful and taciturn, speaking their few words in faultless regional accents." NYT review here
