	Actors - Junebug

Junebug is a 2005 drama film directed by Phil Morrison. It released on August 3, 2005 and stars Amy Adams, Embeth Davidtz and Benjamin McKenzie.

Plot

When newlywed Madeline (Embeth Davidtz), a British diplomat's daughter, travels from Chicago to the rural hill country of North Carolina to pursue a local, self-taught painter (David Wark) for her outsider art gallery, she takes this road-trip opportunity to meet her husband George's (Alessandro Nivola) family, who happens to live only 30 minutes away. There's his flinty, judgmental mother Peg (Celia Weston), his dour, taciturn father Eugene (Scott Wilson) and his sullen, resentful, twentysomething brother Johnny (Benjamin McKenzie of "The O.C.") who, although married, still lives at home, studying for his high school equivalency certificate. They're superficially hospitable but hardly welcoming, except Johnny's talkative, very pregnant wife Ashley (Amy Adams) who plans to name her baby "Junebug," if it's a girl.
