I was thinking about how Winter's Bone and The Social Network were left off of Variety's list of most memorable scenes. It seems like scenes from The Social Network are constantly being talked about, so I'll let that one slide, but Winter's Bone (a film on the bubble for Best Picture) could use a little recognition in the last few days left leading up to Oscar Nominations.
Anyway, here are some Winter's Bone scenes that I love:
1. Ree Dolly, beaten up, bloody, and with no more places to turn for help lays on Merab's garage floor awaiting any further punishment for stirring up talk about her father's whereabouts. Slowly the garage door goes up to reveal Teardrop ready to claim Ree and any of her actions as his responsiblity.
2. Ree takes her mother on a walk through their woods, attempting to solicit her advice regarding selling the woods. She tearfully asks her sick mother to look at her for help in making this decision. The result is only a blank stare in return and Ree understands she will have to continue leading her family on her own.
