What's with Julia Roberts lately?


Has Pretty Woman morphed into Julia of Suburbia? First came 'Eat, Pray, Love' which seemed to wallow in guilt, and now 'August: Osage County' giving us two hours of dysfunctional family. 

I grew up in and surrounded by dysfunctional family, so why in hell would I want to pay to watch one in action? I could write a book about it, and you'd better hope I don't.

I've always enjoyed Julia's movies, until just lately, and I just hope she knows where she's going with all of this. And I wish she'd tell the rest of us.... and enough already with dysfunctional families. We see enough of those in real life.

  1. Ray, if you think that you were raised in a dysfunctional family, you need to; 1) watch this movie and 2) read the book. The title of both is Running with Scissors

    It's absolutely CRAZY!!! Looks like the full movie might be on YouTube.
