Hillbilly Elegy is a drama released on Netflix, that came out in the end of November. It is a 2 hour film, adapted from a book with the same name, that follows a Yale student who from a small Appalachian town that he has worked very hard to escape. When he finds out his mother is in the hospital, he returns to his town, and the movie follows his reflection on both his own history, his family’s past, and his future. The movie got a 27% on Rotten Tomatoes, so I am very excited to see how it turned out! I have a feeling I will have a lot to say. One disclaimer, I have never read the book, but I have heard very good things about that version of the story. The movie is available on Netflix now!

Hi all! I am a current U of M senior majoring in psychology. I love to experience arts events, share them with others, and engage in discussion about them as well. So please feel free to comment on my reviews! Outside of classes, I am in an a cappella group, sorority, psychiatry lab, clinical internship, and honors psychology club. I also did theater throughout high school, and have always felt highly engaged with and connected to the arts. Thanks for visiting our Art[seen] blog and happy reading :)
