The Beaver (Movie Watch)

Walter Black is suffering from extreme depression. As he spends most of his days sleeping or trying different methods of self therapy, his wife Meredith hides behind work & helplessly watches him fall apart; his youngest son Henry becomes a hermit; his oldest son Porter secretly keeps a list of similarities between him & his father to avoid a similar future; and Walter's toy company heads toward bankruptcy. Walter soon hits bottom when Meredith kicks him out of the house, and he decides to get drunk and kill himself. The suicide attempt goes awry, and upon waking up, Walter is introduced to "the Beaver" – a beaver puppet he had found in the trash and put on his hand during his drinking binge – who suddenly speaks to him, in a British accent. With the help of the Beaver (a facet of Walter's personality), Walter gets a new lease on life
