August: Osage County - BLU-RAY

Its a very good movie about family life how depression and substance abuse can affect a family and how people grow from their childhood experiences to adulthood. This movies shows how life is in reality of how we deal with issues that happen to us while growing up and how to deal with it as adults. This movie shows reality in all of us how we deal with social issues as a family.

The acting is super, those that are over the top do so and does that have to be low keyed do so. All in all the casting and the great acting make this a very wonderful movie. It showcases how families interact and all the dysfunctions that go into a family and how pride stands firm even unto the fall.

This was an excellent movie, with strong women as leading actors (which is difficult to find). The acting was excellent, all the way around. The viewer must be patient and interested in the characters and their plights in order to enjoy. I think this would definitely appeal to women rather than men.

an all star cast with two academy award nominees for two of the actresses...three daughters return home during a family crisis...each with her own life with their own problems, but also with a mother who is in need

meryl streep was really great at making you dispise her a truly horrible person with little to no redeeming factors. I also admire Julia Roberts for allowing herself to look ordinary which is not easy for her to accomplish great supporting cast as well
