I watched two films in the past two evening which I consider as "contemporary American culture" films. The stories are simply; but the messages from the films are greater than the stories, in my opinion.
(1) Winter's bone: this film depicts the hardship of the American "in the middle of nowhere" small town life style. People live in the "sheds", doing drug on a daily basis; people know each other; news (bad or good) spread faster than laser beam; children learn how to use rifle at a very young age... it is a real life story.
(2) The extra man: this film depicts the American big city life story - young men married old women for money; young men obsessed with women's clothing (not necessary a homosexual)' people not nessarily know each other and are roomates, etc.
None of these two films have big movie stars; but the acting is excellent.
Watch these two films and make your own judgement.
