The Skeleton Twins
Why this pick

02
People, Places, Things
Why this pick
A quietly funny, unvarnished story of a separated parent rebuilding a life; it shares Wilson’s empathy for messy adults trying to make belated connections.
03
Other People
Why this pick
This sharp indie dramedy uses deadpan, sometimes inappropriate humor to explore a strained family facing painful truths, in a similarly candid and compassionate register.
04
Our Idiot Brother
Why this pick
Its overly candid, socially disruptive central character creates the same kind of chaotic comic friction as Wilson, while the story retains affection for damaged family bonds.
05
The End of the Tour
Why this pick
For Wilson’s appeal as an intimate character study, this offers similarly dry, revealing conversation and a melancholy undercurrent beneath its witty, observational surface.
