Is this Julia Roberts' best performance yet?
Among the Hollywood films hoping to make an impact in the forthcoming Christmas holiday season is August: Osage County - a film adaptation of a celebrated prize-winning play.
The film stars Meryl Streep who is being praised for her portrayal - as is Julia Roberts who also has a big part in the picture.
For many critics who have already seen this story of a dysfunctional family, it is Roberts' strongest role since her Oscar-winning performance in Erin Brockovich 13 years ago.
