Title: Anyone see "August: Osage County" ? Thoughts ?
Post by: EarSplittinLoudenBoomer on January 19, 2014, 02:51:05 AM
I am not sure when this came out, just that it was in the last year ... We rented it on a whim b/c my gf likes Meryl  Streep. I guess she's ok .. seen her play some good roles. Anyways, the whole movie kind of took me by surprise ... Talk about dysfunctional families, these folks were poster material and then some. Went to bed feeling a little weird and a lot shitty  Lol.

I thought it was good as far as the acting/storyline and such. Without knowing any background about it's production I'd take a guess that someone wasn't just making this crap up .. ugh !

So if you saw it, what did you think ? Again not up on these things, but I think Streep was up for an Oscar in this. Not sure.

I may eventually check it out if it's on Netflix streaming, or gets on it at some point.

Yea, it's def worth it. It's got a great cast imo and as rather sad as it may be overall, the story does hold your interest till the end. Mostly b/c you're thinking what the hell can happen to this family next. And now as I think, each person in this extended family has something wrong going on -- past or present. hmm ~ maybe I'll give it another go in a few days.
Thanks for replying !
