Directed by John Wells and written by Tracy Letts based on his play of the same name, August: Osage County is a tour de force in acting on all counts.

Behind The Lens
Rating: 3/5 --
Slow but bolstered by the scene-chewing relish of Streep and Roberts, August: Osage County tries but fails to be the next great take on American kitchen-sink drama.

You aren't likely to forget this Oscar-nominated gem anytime soon.
Full Review
The Daily Times (Tennessee)
[A] juicy slice of Southern melodrama which sees an all-star cast tear strips off each other on the occasion of a funeral-mandated family reunion.
Total Film
It doesn't all necessarily gel-director John Wells seems intimidated by that cast-but it's a master acting class, with Roberts' tough, brassy performance holding the whole thing together.

The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia)
Several cast members are in fine form, but most of them have the potential to distract rather than homogenize, and thus, Wells seems to have let everyone do what they do best and the result feels like a competition of skill.

Product Description:
Director John Wells' adaptation of Tracy Letts' Pulitzer Prize winning play August: Osage County tells the tale of the dysfunctional Westin clan, who all come together after the death of patriarch Beverly Weston (Sam Shepard). His wife Violet (Meryl Streep), who is fighting mouth cancer and a growing dependency on pain pills, sees her entire clan return home for the services, including her sister Mattie Fae Aiken (Margo Martindale) and her husband Charles (Chris Cooper) and their son "Little" Charles (Benedict Cumberbatch). Also arriving are Violet's three daughters: Barbara (Julia Roberts) and her husband Bill (Ewan McGregor), Ivy (Julianne Nicholson), and wild child Karen (Juliette Lewis), who brings her fiancé Steve (Dermot Mulroney). As the clan bickers and jokes, old truths come to the surface, jealousies flourish, and eventually each of the characters confronts some past hurt or future fear. AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY screened at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.
