If you loved Little Men, try Married Life

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Ira Sachs, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Little Men, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Married Life is

One imagines that this film was someone's idea of a lark. A husband in mid-century New York falls for a younger woman and decides that murdering his wife would be less cruel than divorcing her. It is what it is: a black comedy, of sorts.
