August: Osage County

Saw this movie last night on Redbox. I'm not giving a full review but wanted to make a quick comment. It is shockingly raw in the emotion department, making most of our families resemble the Brady Bunch! Just look at this publicity poster and you'll get the idea. I certainly walked away appreciating the family God has given me. 

That aside, it was moving and had some powerful scenes and a few surprise twists. Meryl Streep was amazing - she is in her own league when it comes to actresses - and Julia Roberts shows us a different side of her talent. Dark, gritty, and deep. Be prepared for quite a bit of profanity. Again, NOT the Brady Bunch!
