01
The Club
Why this pick
Beresford again uses a sharply observed Australian ensemble to expose tribal loyalties, masculine performance and status games, with comedy that gradually turns sour.

02
The Party
Why this pick
A compact, single-evening gathering where civil conversation fractures into ideological sparring, private resentments and escalating comic discomfort.
03
The Big Chill
Why this pick
Its reunion-house setting similarly lets a highly verbal group test old bonds, political ideals and self-images through funny, increasingly revealing conversation.
04
Carnage
Why this pick
Like Don's Party, it traps adults in a domestic social ritual and watches politeness collapse into competitive, alcohol-fuelled hostility.
05
The Celebration
Why this pick
An uneasy family party becomes a volatile ensemble pressure-cooker, combining uncomfortable humour, social performance and an unflinching interest in what gatherings conceal.
