Our Idiot Brother
- Comedy
- Drama
Everybody has one—the sibling who is always just a little bit behind the curve when it comes to getting his life together. For sisters Liz, Miranda and Natalie, that person is their perennially upbeat brother, Ned. But as each of their lives begins to unravel, Ned's family comes to realise that Ned isn't such an idiot after all.
Our Idiot Brother is a 2011 comedy-drama about three sisters whose lives unravel while their seemingly hapless brother Ned proves to be wiser than they thought. The film stars Paul Rudd as the eternally optimistic Ned and explores how family dynamics shift when the people you thought had it all together actually don't. It's a heartfelt comedy that balances humor with genuine character development.
