The film follows their story over two decades, exploring themes of relationships, status, and success.
The cast also includes Andy Samberg and Kate McKinnon as the Roses' neighbors, Barry and Amy, who are eccentric and often humorous.

The film is a black comedy that explores the darker side of relationships and the absurdity of modern life. With its talented cast and witty dialogue, The Roses is a must-see for fans of comedy and drama.
