August: Osage County




The title designates time and location: an unusually hot August in a rural area outside Pawhuska, Oklahoma. Beverly Weston (Sam Shepard), an alcoholic, once-noted poet, interviews and hires a young native American woman Johnna (Misty Upham) as a live-in cook and caregiver for his strong-willed and contentious wife Violet (Meryl Streep), who is suffering from oral cancer and addiction to narcotics. Shortly after this, he disappears from the house, and Violet calls her sister and daughters for support. Her sister Mattie Fae (Margo Martindale) arrives with husband Charles Aiken (Chris Cooper). Violet's middle daughter Ivy (Julianne Nicholson) is single and the only one living locally; Barbara (Julia Roberts), her oldest, who has inherited her mother's mean streak, arrives from Colorado with her husband Bill (Ewan McGregor) and 14-year-old daughter Jean (Abigail Breslin). Barbara and Bill are separated, but they put up a united front for Violet.

After five days, the sheriff arrives with the news that Beverly took his boat out on the lake and has drowned. Youngest daughter Karen (Juliette Lewis) arrives with the latest in a string of boyfriends, Steve Huberbrecht (Dermot Mulroney), a sleazy Florida businessman whom she introduces as her fiancé. Mattie Fae's and Charles' shy, awkward son "Little Charles" (Benedict Cumberbatch) misses the funeral because he overslept and is met at the bus station by his father. Charles loves Little Charles, though Mattie constantly belittles her son. Ivy confides to Barbara that she is in love with Little Charles, and she cannot have children because she had a hysterectomy.

The family sits down to dinner after the funeral, fueled by Violet's brutal "truth telling", which results in Barbara pouncing on her mother. She decides she has had enough of the drug addiction and confiscates all her pills. Later, after Violet has had a chance to sober up, she has a tender moment with her daughters and reveals that her own mother was very cruel.

As Little Charles sings Ivy a song he has written for her, Mattie Fae walks in and berates him. This exhausts Charles' patience with his wife's lack of love and compassion for her son, and he tells her their marriage has lasted 38 years, and he wouldn't trade it for the world, but if she can't find a warm spot in her heart for Little Charles, it won't last 39. Mattie subsequently reveals to Barbara that she had an affair with Beverly, and Little Charles is in fact their half brother and that is further reason why he and Ivy should not be together.

Steve attempts to seduce Jean by plying her with marijuana; Johnna catches him and goes after him with a shovel. Barbara confronts Jean and slaps her. This impels Bill to take Jean back to Colorado, leaving Barbara. It is now clear that they are headed for divorce. Karen also leaves with Steve.

Later, Ivy tries to tell her mother about her love for Little Charles. Barbara tries to deflect the admission. Violet says that she has known all along that he is Beverly's son. This drives Ivy to leave, promising never to return. In the last confrontation between Violet and Barbara, Violet admits she was contacted by Beverly, but did nothing to help him until after she removed money from the couple's joint safe deposit box, by which time it was too late. Barbara leaves in a pickup truck. Violet is left with only Johnna.
