15 Films You Need To See In 2013

6. August: Osage County

I've never seen or read the Pulitzer winning play this film is based on, but a little research shows that it's a dark comedy about a dysfunctional family who come together during a family crisis. This could certainly make it an interesting film to watch as we try to see the characters work out their differences. The Weinstein Company screened a cut of the film recently and the response was overwhelmingly positive, with many pundits predicting Oscar nominations for the principle cast members. Apparently, it does a great job of balancing drama and humor, so I'm looking forward to seeing a trailer for this one.

I spend most of my free time either reading about upcoming movies, watching movies, or going to the movie theater. I enjoy watching all types of films from summer blockbusters to Oscar contending dramas. I am also a huge sports fan, rooting for the New York Giants, Knicks, and Yankees
