An enjoyable comedy, “Wilson” served as a vehicle for its star Woody Harrelson with our critic saying, “…Harrelson appears to be having a blast in a role that he really does make his own, playing Wilson as a mostly benign weirdo who has a certain zestful spirit, and may even be right about the alienation of today’s wired-up, over-connected society.”
Based on the graphic novel by Daniel Clowes, the story follows a lonely, neurotic and honest middle-aged misanthrope who reunites with his estranged wife (Laura Dern) and gets a shot at happiness when he learns he has a teenage daughter (Isabella Amara) he has never met. In his uniquely outrageous and slightly twisted way, he sets out to connect with her.
Directed by Craig Johnson in his follow-up to 2014’s “The Skeleton Twins,” the film is another showcase for his ability to balance drama and comedy. And today, we have an exclusive deleted scene from the film, which sees Wilson tracking down his teenage daughter Claire.
It’s just one of the 15 deleted scenes on the home entertainment release, which will also feature a red band trailer and more. “Wilson” is available on Digital HD, Blu-ray, and DVD today.
