Wilfred
Series · 2011
Everyone else sees Wilfred as just a dog, but Ryan sees a crude and somewhat surly, yet irrepressibly brave and honest Australian bloke in a cheap dog suit. While leading him through a series of comedic and existential adventures, Wilfred the dog shows Ryan the man how to overcome his fears and joyfully embrace the unpredictability and insanity of the world around him.
The sides of Wilfred
- A depressed lawyer after a failed suicide attempt
- His neighbor's dog, seen as a man in a dog suit
- A basement full of strange visions
Wilfred is good for you if…
- you laugh at a crude dog leading a lost man into trouble.
- you like Elijah Wood talking to a man in a cheap dog costume.
- you like never being sure what is real.
Wilfred is bad for you if…
- you can't watch a story that starts with a suicide attempt.
- you need a story that explains itself logically.
