Jennifer Lawrence has starred in a slew of hit movies, but there's a lesser-known film of hers that fans are still raving about 15 years on.
Lawrence found worldwide stardom after featuring The Hunger Games franchise alongside Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson, having since starred in films like X-Men, Mother!, No Hard Feelings (a personal favorite), and American Hustle — to name a few.
But it was Silver Linings Playbook that got Lawrence her first Oscar win in 2013 for Best Actress. She played Tiffany in the movie alongside Bradley Cooper, who portrayed Pat Solitano.
While this was her first Oscar win, it wasn't her first nomination; this came from 2010's Winter's Bone.

Boasting 94 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, her highest scoring movie on the reviewing platform, Winter's Bone follows 'unflinching Ozark Mountain girl Ree, who is forced to trudge through dangerous social terrain in pursuit of her drug-dealing father as she grapples with keeping her family unit intact'.
The film has been topic of debate of late as June 11 marked 15 years since its release in America.
"Perfect indie film," someone said of it.
Also marking the occasion, another Winter's Bone lover said: "Oh happy 15 years to Winter's Bone and the exquisite performance of a young Jennifer Lawrence."
"This movie still sticks with me," added another.
Elsewhere on Twitter, one film fan urged people to 'name a movie that blew you away but no one talks about'.
Someone replied: "I saw Winter’s Bone in the theater when it came out. It was so visceral."
A different film fan hailed Lawrence as a 'great actress' and said that Winter's Bone is one movie they've repeatedly watched.
Many other Twitter-users have put Winter's Bone in their top ten films that were released through the 2010s.
People have echoed similar sentiments about the movie in their reviews of it on Rotten Tomatoes, where one person described it as 'a haunting film of life in America'.
"Jennifer Lawrence is dazzling as the film's protagonist as she struggles to uncover the truth between her addict father's disappearance," raved another.
Lawrence herself has previously spoke of her love for the film, as she said in a previous interview, per Entertainment Tonight: "I just loved the movie and I loved the character — and would have done anything for it."
But, be warned folks... if you want to watch this cult classic movie then you need to hurry as it's set to leave Prime Video on June 30.
Happy viewing!
