Every piece of artwork, every penny, and every part of the only life she knows. Her big plan is to escape to Paris with what little money she has left. Coming along for the adventure is her son, Malcolm, played by Lucas Hedges. Malcolm was set toRead More →

Movie Trailer: AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY

AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY Director: John Wells Starring: Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Juliette Lewis, Abigail Breslin, Ewan McGregor, Dermot Mulroney, Chris Cooper, Sam Shepard, Margo Martindale, Benedict Cumberbatch When I first heard that Goddess Meryl Streep had been cast as Violet, the pill-popping matriarch of the Weston family, I thought of no one better that could play that role for the big screen adaptation of the Tracy Letts play.

To call this family dynamic dysfunctional would be an understatement. Movies adapted from stageRead More →
