Stream what: Ryan Gosling is the titular Lars, an introverted young man who introduces his family to his new girlfriend --- a doll he ordered online.
Stream why: The tone isn't slapstick and mocking --- instead, the town takes the Capra-esque approach of going along with it. Plus, the strong writing makes Emily Mortimer, Paul Schneider, and Patricia Clarkson seem even better than usual.
Stream where: Netflix, Amazon Prime
Stream whuh?: Netflix rather cruelly describes Lars as "a delusional loner." Way harsh, Tai.
