August: Osage County (9-Sep-2013)

Director: John Wells

Writer: Tracy Letts

Keywords: Drama

Film adaptation of a Broadway play of the same name follows a crew of individualistic women as a family crisis brings them face-to-face with their offbeat upbringing.

ABSTRACT
Adapted from the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway play of the same name, August: Osage County features a star-studded ensemble to tell the tale of Beverly and Violet Weston, an aging drug- and alcohol-addled couple living in small-town Oklahoma. Their extended family, brought together by the patriarch's sudden disappearance, generates moments of dark humor although the overall story is decidedly no comedy. Nominated for Academy Awards for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress.
