I just saw on imdb the film version of this incredible play will be out this year starring Matthew McConaughey, Gina Gershon, Emile Hirsch and Juno Temple. I can't believe I hadn't heard about this before! Does anyone know anything about it??

Being made by William "Bug" Friedkin. Guess he's into adapting Letts' plays. First I've heard.

As long as he doesn't suck the humour out again.

I wish he had the rights to the "August:Osage County" movie.

I thought BUG worked very well as a claustrophobic horror piece. It really crawled under your skin little by little. Granted, I saw the film before the play, but I still think it worked both ways.
