TV RELOAD: WICKER – A Bizarre, Beautiful and Unconventional Love Story What happens when the perfect husband isn't a man at all, but something made entirely from wicker? This week on TV Reload, Ben Norris and Brose Avard step into the wonderfully strange world of Wicker, a darkly funny fantasy romance starring Academy Award winner Olivia Colman, Alexander Skarsgård, Elizabeth Debicki and Peter Dinklage. At the centre of this unconventional fairytale is a lonely fisherwoman who commissions a husband woven from wicker, setting in motion an extraordinary love story that challenges everything we think we know about relationships, happiness and belonging. Ben and Brose unpack the film's wonderfully eccentric premise, exploring its surprising emotional depth, offbeat humour and the fascinating questions it raises about jealousy, loneliness, love and society's expectations of what a relationship should look like. The conversation also turns to the film's impressive performances, particularly Olivia Colman's captivating portrayal of a woman determined to find happiness on her own terms, and Alexander Skarsgård's remarkable physical transformation into her unusual romantic partner. Inspired by a short story by Ursula Wills-Jones, Wicker blends fantasy, romance and social satire into something unlike anything else at the cinema. But does this bizarre love story weave its magic, or does the whole thing unravel? Join Ben and Brose as they explore the film's hidden meanings, standout performances, creative choices and whether this wonderfully weird romance deserves a place on your must-watch list. 🎬 TV Reload – The Movie Review 🎧 Available now on iHeartRadio and wherever you get your podcasts.
