“Hillbilly Elegy” revealed the trailer, Amy Adams gained weight and pretended to be ugly in order to better play her role

Judging from the performance of the preview, these two are very hopeful to be nominated for the performance category of the Oscar next year. Amy Adams gained weight and pretended to be ugly in order to better play her role.

In the film, the actor Jed Vance (Gabriel Basso) is a Yale Law School student and previously served as a member of the Marine Corps.

He was about to get the job he dreamed of, but something happened to his hometown in the Appalachian Mountains at this time, which forced him to return to the home he desperately wanted to escape from.

Waiting for Jade at home is the complicated and intractable family relationship, especially the moody mother Beve, who is suffering from drug addiction.

Everything he faced reminded him of his grandma, she was tough and smart, shouldering the responsibility of nurturing him. Between the impact of reality and memories of the past, Jed finally understands the indelible mark his family has left on his life.

The film is adapted from the memoir of the same name by J.D. Vance and tells the author’s own experience of struggling from the bottom of society.

In the entire memoir, the author tells the truth about the impact of the decline of society, region, and class on people who are trapped in it from birth.

However, it is such an inspirational novel that has encountered huge controversy in the United States.

Many people believe that the author Vance is whitewashing and overcorrecting, because the residents of the Appalachian Mountains have no ability to change their own living conditions.

Many people object to the content in the memoir with real names and accuse it of falsehood and forgery.
