I read about this movie somewhere and it looked intriguing so I checked into it further and then added it to our queue. The movie was about a girl who had to search for her father, who skipped bail, so that she and her family would not lose their home (which was put up for said bail). It doesn’t sound very interesting when you put it that way, but it was. It was set in the Ozarks, where poverty abounds, which was interesting in itself. Brian wasn’t too thrilled with my selection–until he watched the movie. He said it was one of the best he’s seen in recent years and I have to agree.

And, they didn’t do my pet peeve thing of saying the movie title in the movie dialog (at least not that I heard). It made me like it even more.
