Estranged Siblings Reunite After Ten Years
"The Skeleton Twins" is a film about a troubled brother and sister, an unhappy marriage and a suicide, yet it is far from depressing. In fact, its stars -- "Saturday Night Live" alumni Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader -- spotlight the absurdity of wrenching emotional crises.<br /><br />Maggie (Wiig) and Lance (Luke Wilson) live in upstate New York in a picture-perfect home. They are supposedly trying to have a child, but Maggie is miserable. She's secretly on birth control and is having an affair. When she gets a call from a Los Angeles hospital that her twin brother Milo (Hader), whom she hasn't seen in ten years, has tried to kill himself, she rushes to his side and convinces him to come home with her to recuperate. His return dredges up old memories and a controversial past.<br /><br />The movie layers on assorted examples of dysfunction, showing why both Maggie and Milo are so screwed up. The tone, however, is troublesome, as it switches back and forth from lighter moments to pretty bleak scenes. Using suicide as the jumping-off point for comedy is an awkward sell, and many scenes never achieve proper balance. Are we supposed to laugh at how messed up these two are, sympathize with their suffering, or regard them as victims of fate? Writer/director Craig Johnson and co-writer Mark Heyman elicit first-rate dramatic performances from both Ms. Wiig and Mr. Hader, a feat considering their past work leads the viewer to expect rollicking laughs that never materialize.<br /><br />"The Skeleton Twins" defies classification. Not exactly a comedy, though it has humor, and not heavy drama, despite its subject matter, it's an uncomfortable hybrid. Bonus extras on the Blu-ray release include outtakes, deleted scenes, director and co-writer audio commentary, gag reel, digital copy, and making-of featurette.
