Winter's Bone ProductionsThe Ozarks never looked this pretty—or dangerous.
Winter's Bone, director Debra Granik's harrowing thriller about a Missouri mountain girl hunting for her meth-dealing father while caring for her family, doubled its pleasure at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, scoring the Grand Jury Prize for best dramatic feature as well as the top screenwriting award.
Other big winners Saturday night included Sebastian Junger and Tim Heatherington's Restrepo, an embedded journalist's intense chronicle of the U.S. military's battle with the Taliban in Afghanistan's dangerous Korengal Valley, which brought home the Grand Jury Prize for best U.S. documentary.
