I’m sorry…I just don’t get the hype…sure the acting from Adams and Close was standout (as to be expected), but it flatlined for me. This was boring and overrated. I didn’t read the book and honesty wasn’t all that familiar with J.D. Vance — but this didn’t make me want to rectify either. But I will say that the casting/hair/makeup was spot on — so kudos to that!

“Hillbilly Elegy” is currently streaming on Netflix.
