Last night, Pam and I watched “August: Osage County,” with Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts (among other stars). Yes, superb performances. However, absolutely nothing redeeming about the movie.
No major characters worth admiring.
No positive changes in anyone’s behavior or thinking.
No indication that anything at all changes for the better from the beginning to the end of the movie.
Just a totally dysfunctional family going through their dysfunctional motions.
All it did was made me pray, “Lord, thank you that I don’t belong to a family like that.”
