August Poster
Rated: R
First Look Studios announces the theatrical release of August, a selection from the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, on July 11, 2008. Josh Hartnett leads a stellar cast, including David Bowie, Naomie Harris, Rip Torn, Robin Tunney and Adam Scott. Director Austin Chick (XX/XY) presents an insightful look at the financial crash of the dot com era, bringing to life the economic chaos and ambiguity that ensued during this tumultuous time that marked the end of an era.

August is the story of two brothers, Tom and Joshua Sterling (Josh Hartnett and Adam Scott) whose Internet start-up, Landshark, is as hot as a New York City summer - only this is the summer of 2001, their company is in lock up, its stock price is plunging and, in a few weeks, the world will change forever.

But right now Tom is living the hedonistic life of an Internet star, the kind of guy we might have seen profiled on 60 Minutes: he dates multiple women, drives a '69 Camaro convertible and hangs out at a new club called Bungalow 8. But, like an emo version of Patrick Bateman (played by Christian Bale in American Psycho), it somehow never seems to matter that Tom is not quite able to explain what his company actually does.
