The Invite – the sparkling new film directed by Olivia Wilde – starts with a quote from the florid wit of Oscar Wilde: “One should always be in love… that is the reason one should never marry.” Well, quite. A four-hander, nearly all set in the apartment belonging to music teacher Joe (Seth Rogen) and his wife Angela (Wilde), it’s a shrewd, savage and frequently hilarious take on coupledom, so wincingly accurate it’s hard not to see yourself up on screen.
