If you loved Mystery, Alaska, try The Roses

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 Jay Roach, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mystery, Alaska, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Roses is

Perpetual sunsets suggest perfect lives. Beneath suburban blushes, a marriage cracks as Theo’s career wilts while Ivy’s blooms. The roses in the vase should’ve been plastic.
