Today,/Hillbilly Elegy/, the film adaptation of J.D. Vance’s 2016 book
of the same name, arrives on Netflix. The critical consensus is that
it’s not worth your time. Of course, if you’ve followed our work at Belt
Magazine over the past six years, you knew this was going to be the
case; Belt’s writers (both here at the magazine and over atBelt
Publishing <https://beltpublishing.com/products/appalachia>) have spent
years laying out all the ways Vance and company get Appalachia wrong.
And if you’re new to the Belt universe, well, now you know.
