Winner of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival’s Grand Jury Prize and Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award, this tense, naturalistic thriller “Winter’s Bone” follows 17-year-old Ree Dolly as she confronts the local criminal underworld and the harsh Ozark wilderness in order to to track down her father, who has put up the family homestead for his bail. Roadside Attractions, the film’s distributor, is pegging the movie this way: Featuring a star-making performance by Jennifer Lawrence, Winter’s Bone is sure to be one of the most critically acclaimed films of the year.
Jennifer Lawrence earned her first Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role in Winter’s Bone.
