Based on the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award®-winning play by Tracy Letts, "August: Osage County" tells the dark, hilarious and deeply touching story of the strong-willed women of the Weston family, whose lives have diverged until a family crisis brings them back to the Midwest house they grew up in, and to the dysfunctional woman who raised them. Letts’ play made its Broadway debut in December 2007 after premiering at Chicago’s legendary Steppenwolf Theatre earlier that year. It continued with a successful international run.

MOVIE REVIEW

Meryl Streep is a bitch. Like, super bitch. And she embraces it wholeheartedly in the fiercely entertaining August: Osage County, one of the funniest depressing movies – or one of the most depressing comedies – to ever hit the silver screen. Oh, and the bitch gives another Oscar-winning performance.
