New Movies: Release Calendar for March 3, Plus Where to Watch the Latest Films Despite the central trio holding each other - and by proxy, the viewer - at arm’s length for the majority of the film’s running time, cynical defenses are chipped away to raise up the sibling relationship as one of the most knotty and meaningful humans can have. But what happens when you grow up, and a family tragedy rips you apart? What do you do when you feel obligated to stay in touch with the siblings you still love, but nostalgia for your childhood has suddenly become too painful a memory to indulge in?ĭustin Guy Defa’s “ The Adults” is an emotional scream transposed through low-decibel vocal fry - an endearing sibling drama full of cringe comedy that lands a miraculous, unexpectedly poignant ending, seemingly out of nowhere. The silly voices, the elaborate bits, the rehearsed dance routines, the specific style of patter that an outsider would find impenetrable. Sibling in-jokes - often first formed when our brains are still goofy and undeveloped, and honed through the hysteria of spending too much time with somebody who shares your DNA - are often the most absurd and abiding.
