It’s actually good.

How embarrassed do you suppose Opie is about directing this stinkburger? You just know he had no idea who JD Vance was at the time, nor that the guy would wind up being Trump's running mate.
Do you think anyone in Hollywood blames Richie Cunningham even a little?

"Hillbilly Elegy" was nominated for 2 Oscars:
- Best Supporting Actress for Glenn Close (lost to Yuh-jung Youn in "Minari")
- Best Makeup & Hairstyling (lost to "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom")
Close and Amy Adams were also nominated for SAG for their performances.

R1 lol. It’s a good film with some solid acting. Glen hasn’t come on yet but Amy and the kid JD is spectacular. Did you actually watch the film? Or are just repeating talking points because it’s about hillbillies. Didn’t G get nominated for an Oscar for this film. I will say after the childhood he encountered it seems like he would be liberal. But then again at the dinner table with elites, a highly educated intellectual called him a redneck. It’s not the same but it’s like calling someone from that background a nigga. Like how out of touch can u be lol.

I’ve had a Hillbilly Allergy ever since they stopped having a sense of humor about themselves and started making drug addiction and environmental mayhem their crusade. They’re a lawless, inbred, racist, willfully stupid menace. No longer our lovable Snuffy Smith or resourceful Li’l Abner. They’ve been poisoned and manipulated by big thinkers that the Clampett’s would have seen through in twenty minutes.

Exactly how does one "encounter" a childhood, r4?

And Hollywood hasn't been the same since Yuh-jung Youn's took off with that Oscar win. By golly, you can't escape all the Yuh-jung Youn coverage in the media !

I really don’t get why this film was trashed by critics. It’s very good, if uneven, drama. G even got a Razzie nomination. Richard Roeper got it right though; he gave it 4 stars.

I too watched it the other day for the first time, I came away from it feeling like it was wildly exaggerated for effect and that Vance was somewhat of a drama queen.
Reminded me of a similar film I also disliked (but watched), August, Osage County.
Winter's Bone was OK, but not great.
What's with all the white trash movies?

R13 All I know is it was obvious he would be a right wing cunt no matter how intelligent. When his mama asked him to piss and his stanking ass wouldn’t do it. Its your mom putting food on the table, cunt. How can you not get it at 12. The personality of the character was very self righteous to me but there are people like that. This was a good film.

Freida Pinto, the Indian actress who plays Usha, married a photographer with truly fabulous hair.

Does JD make sacrifices to Hanuman?
Is that where he got the kohl for his piggy eyes.

JD grew up fairly wealthy. It’s all a lie.

JD voted for Obama twice, voted for Hillary, called DT America’s Hitler, then Peter Theil threw lots of $ at him and suddenly he’s full on far right nut job. Hmmmmm

R20 So lame then. I hate people who don’t have principles. I would never sell out for money. Well maybe to Hollywood but not megalomaniacs like Theil. R19 any sources or you know the family? I would really love for it to be made all made up so the Dems can use it against them.

R21 This is from Reddit, but it’s easily provable. Much behind paywalled articles.
