OUR IDIOT BROTHER

August 23rd, 2011

OUR IDIOT BROTHER- 2011- Synopsis by Netflix. “Ned (Paul Rudd) is a seemingly clueless idealist who must rely upon his three exasperated sisters (Emily Mortimer, Elizabeth Banks and Zooey Deschanel) for shelter and support after he’s dumped by his fed-up girlfriend (Kathryn Hahn) and loses custody of his beloved dog, Willie Nelson. As he wreaks havoc on his sisters’ lives, Ned’s earnestness shines through until his siblings realize that family ties take priority over wealth and position.” Good reviews so far. TRDB.

8/27/11- Good review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.

12/3/11- I almost turned this off near the beginning but didn’t (and don’t you). Many cliches but this movie was different and had some of the funniest scenes that I have seen in a long time. Interesting family dynamics as well. TRDB. Netflix.
