''Tully'' is a 2018 dramedy and the third collaboration between director Creator/JasonReitman and writer Creator/DiabloCody. It stars Creator/CharlizeTheron, Mackenzie Davis, Ron Livingston, and Mark Duplass.
Marlo (Theron) just had her third child and is overwhelmed with taking care of the baby, as well as her two older kids. Her brother Craig (Duplass) offers a solution: a night nanny that he would pay for himself. Enter Tully (Davis), who is there to "take care" of Marlo and her kids.
!!This film provides examples of:
* BookEnds: The film opens with Marlo brushing Jonah's skin as a means to soothe him, and at the end of the film, she goes to do so again, but Jonah decides he doesn't need to be brushed.
* CasualKink: Marlo finds out Drew has something of a fetish for the waitress outfits of the 50's/60's.
* ClusterFBomb: Marlo lets a few loose when speaking to the principal of Sarah and Jonah's school since Marlo thinks they are singling Jonah out because of his autism.
* ReallyGetsAround: Tully mentions to Marlo that her roommate is upset that she brings lots of guys home.
* TheReveal: [[spoiler:Tully never existed. She was a product of Marlo's sleep deprivation and exhaustion, and everything we saw them doing was just Marlo acting alone.]]
