"Our Idiot Brother" is a heartwarming comedy-drama released in 2011, directed by an ensemble team including Elizabeth Banks, Jesse Peretz, Nick Sullivan, Paul Rudd, and Zooey Deschanel. The film follows the story of Ned (played by Paul Rudd), a well-meaning but naive organic farmer who, after a misunderstanding with a police officer, finds himself in jail.

Ned's honest and unfiltered approach to life hilariously disrupts their carefully constructed worlds, leading to a series of comedic and touching moments.

The film beautifully explores themes of family dynamics, acceptance, and the true meaning of happiness.
