"At 17 years old Ree Dolly sets out to find his father, who put his house to secure his bail and then disappeared without trace. Having to face the risk of being to lose their homes and embarking on Ozark forests, Ree outlaw defies the code of silence of her relatives and risks his life to save her family. battle through lies, evasions and threats posed by their relatives, to begin rebuilding the truth. "

is a set of Hollywood: The more experienced than the character, the more chances you have your protagonist / actress chosen for the top prize of cinema. Blood Ties not escape this rule, though a product is slightly overrated by the Academy, really wonderful escapes the standard conventions of the past to show his face Hidden from a world power such as the United States.

Before the trip, the tour de force that holds for Ree Dolly in this movie, there's a caveat: start watching the movie with an open mind and well rested, because this trip is not for everyone, least for a mind impatient. Have been warned.

With a minimum budget, the director Debra Granik history built an apparent minimum in a suspense tale, in its structure, is always the same, but endowed him with personality, with people of strong character and unusual, in a hostile environment and cold, so cruel as puede resultar frío un invierno en las montañas Ozark, en Missouri.

En este ambiente tan cerrado y negativo, la joven Ree Dolly se hace cargo de dos hermanos menores y su madre, quien la mayor parte del tiempo se encuentra medicada. ¿Su padre? bien, gracias, desaparecido y sin ningún rastro de su paradero. Ree tiene sueños, quiere entrar a la milicia, pero sin nadie a quien recurrir para cuidar de su familia, debe hacer a un lado sus añoranzas y darle sustento a su familia. Esto es, hasta que se entera que su padre ha pagado su fianza dando su casa como garantía, y si no se presenta en la Corte, lo perderán todo. Ni su propia sangre la quiere ayudar, because the father, Jessup, walking in shady deals, so Ree's own will to find his father no matter what.

At first, began to question how justified was nominated for Best Actress burden on the young and beautiful Jennifer Lawrence, who for the first half hour was nothing more than a pretty face with a accent, but is intensifying as the story and everything that is happening to Ree, I understand how you arrived at this conclusion: it is too much weight on what has to happen this young, too much rest on his shoulders, and the fact that nothing predicts a hopeful end makes you suffer more as that the truth begins to unfold.

it's not just the only jewel in the meantime mud: the secondary characters are all wonderful, and the director decided to use local residents to form the cast, and all are naturally equally stunning and intimidating, either separately or together. Some big stars of Mecca should be inspired by these people, because they act as in everyday life (at least a little, not much) and are natural. There are some familiar faces, as Garret Dillahunt as the Sheriff of the area but the secondary is the most explosive John Hawkes as Teardrop, Ree's uncle, who at first seemed like a villain but ends up being of great importance and help her. Hawkes has also been nominated for an Oscar, and I admire his character's journey as well.

Another key character in this story are the scenarios and how Debra Granik was able to get the best of them: the extreme human poverty exudative place of residence of Ree and her family speaks for itself - everything is cold and sad, the sky is always gray, the people have the same spirit as the weather, and no trust in anyone. All Blood Ties transpires rawness, and the same all of crudeness continues until the end.

Although, I must say, the hour and a half hours can feel like lead, because the film has little to zero rate is very slow and may deter even the most rugged and endured movie buff, but after all it's worth to see the story end and discover that among so much pain there is a hint of light and hope if you persevere in its mission.

Blood Ties is a bloody history and hard, but with a wonderful main character like the de Ree Dolly, in a magnificent performance by Jennifer Lawrence. It has very few chances in the Academy Awards, but no longer a great film worthy commented.
