I watched this film in my daughter's yesterday as she has the Disney channel. I was disappointed and could not understand how it won so many Oscars.
Personally I think that it would have been better as a documentary although I have always admired the work of Frances Mcdormand.
I think that Hillybilly Elegy was the better film and that Glenn Close should have had an Oscar.
I can see similarities in both films in that they depict what it is like to be poor in present day America, but as I said, I prefer Hillbilly.
I did comment to my daughter afterwards that I was so glad that I had not paid to watch it in a cinema, as I would have been disappointed
