It's a lot grayer than I imagined it.

Like everybody else, I just cannot get enough tidbits about every single aspect of this must-see cinematic event. Where can we watch the dailies online?

I have to say I think they owe it to us, the devoted fans of the show, to let us pick which shots they use in constructing the scenes.

Why mock someone who is just posting photos of the filming of a play turned in to a film?

Thanks for the photos

I like the "dramatic gray roots" caption. I guess they'll be doing the heavy lifting.

She looks like Shirley Phelps, and they've really made Breslin look like Madeleine Martin. MacGregor also looks great.


Practically perfect in every way.

I'm glad they chose to de-glam Julia.

Pictures of Julia Roberts, Ewan McGregor, and Julianne Nicholson filming (SPOILER ALERT) the scene where Barbara identifies Beverly's body.

Wow, I was completely skeptic when Julia Roberts was announced but she seems almost transformative in those stills. The picture completely recalls the moment on stage when Barbara finds out about her father's death.

This is one of the few cases where I'll probably prefer the film version specifically for the fact they are likely to edit down the script considerably. At least, I hope so.

The script is solid and almost reads like a screenplay.

I can't wait to read it and compare the differences.

Interesting reaction, I can't think of a play that reads less like a screenplay than AUGUST. Like Albee plays, it's all centered in a single house, domestic scenes built around quotidian family woes, meals, etc., not inherently cinematic. (Think HANNAH AND HER SISTERS without cutaways to other parts of Manhattan, only the Thanksgiving sections.) I believe large chunks will have to trimmed, or it could talk its way off the screen. The challenge must be that reductive process, to both open it up and yet keep the lid on the simmering emotions within the walls. It's all about the pile-up of people and their issues.
