Review of Hillbilly Elegy (2020) by Rtheom — 01 Dec 2020

I was surprised by this movie. Going into it, I thought it was just going to be some drama about rednecks and problems that relate specifically to them. Instead, I came out with a story that reflected some of the trauma I experienced growing up with an addict.

This is one of those movies where you've either experienced what's happening in the film and it just hits home really hard, or you haven't and you should consider yourself fortunate, but know that what they're showing here is surprisingly genuine.
