Brother Sibling Movie

Episode 14 - The Brothers Bloom: The Best Movie You Haven't Seen


Listen Later

We continue Season 2 - Siblings with perhaps one of the best films ever made: that you have probably never seen: The Brothers Bloom. As the name implies, this movie centers around the Bloom brothers, life-long con men with a flare for the dramatic. We follow the story of Bloom and Steven through their humble beginnings as misbehaving rascals to their current lives as a well-oiled team of con artists. Bloom, played by Adrian Brody, hates the life his brother Steven, played by Mark Ruffalo, has written for him through their time. Steven resolves to write Bloom the perfect con as their "last big job" that involves shaking down an eccentric billionaire loner Penelope, played by Rachel Weiss. It's a rollicking ride through beautiful European cities, steamer ships, and trains that culminates in one of the most heart-wrenching crescendos in cinematic history. GO WATCH THIS MOVIE IMMEDIATELY!
