Friday, 13 November, 2026
What happens when the perfect husband is made of wicker? In this episode of So I Married a Film Critic, we're talking about Wicker (2026), a wildly unconventional romantic fantasy comedy that takes marriage, relationships, and small-town gossip to a whole new level.Starring Olivia Colman, Alexander Skarsgård, Peter Dinklage, and Elizabeth Debicki, Wicker tells the story of a lonely, ostracized fisherwoman who commissions a local basketmaker to create a husband for her. But when her wicker husband turns out to be more wonderful than anyone expected, the little seaside village is turned upside down by jealousy, fascination, and outrage.We're discussing this unusual blend of fantasy, romance, comedy, and social satire. What makes a good husband? Can a man made of wicker really set the bar for marriage? And what does this wonderfully strange film have to say about relationships, love, and society's expectations?We also get into the film's adult humor, unconventional take on intimacy, and one particularly memorable example of wicker craftsmanship that definitely deserves its own discussion. Plus, collars, carrots and bizarre rituals...oh my!Is Wicker a charming romantic fantasy, a clever comedy, or just plain weird? Join us for an honest, entertaining, and opinionated movie review because ya'll asked for it.
