Lars and the Real Girl is a masterpiece. It is weird, and odd, while respectfully discussing mental illness and grief, and also a town taking care of their own. It is one of my absolute favorite movies. I was always surprised with reactions in this movie. I kept expecting disgust or bullying as a response to him and his “girlfriend”; and while there was a little, he always had defenders, and the ladies in town included the doll in ladies outings and stuff. I LOVE THIS MOVIE

I also googled it after I posted and noticed it was ALL SIX of his siblings

Except that one time that guy ran for Congress or senate, and like 5 of his 6 siblings made an ad that he was not a good guy for the job. I believed that.
