Films and TV shows that feel like Dream Job by Yard Act
A sharply funny, self-deprecating modern existential crisis about wanting success while despising the capitalist ladder you are trying to climb.
- Succession (2018): Shares the same venomous satire about ambition, media empires, and the deeply flawed people who crave power.
- The Death of Stalin (2017): Matches the track's cynical, fast-talking absurdity and blackly comedic political posturing.
- Triangle of Sadness (2022): Takes the same satirical aim at modern privilege, class structures, and the performative nature of success.
- Brian and Charles (2022): Captures a uniquely deadpan, slightly surreal British working-class creative eccentricity.
- Four Lions (2010): Channels the exact brand of sharp, uncomfortable British satirical wit found in Yard Act's lyrical storytelling.
- This Is England (2007): Provides the gritty, authentic contemporary British social texture that underpins the band's aesthetic.
- Fleabag (2016): Leans heavily into self-sabotaging modern neurosis, direct-to-audience address, and dry British irony.
- Sightseers (2012): Blends pitch-black humor with ordinary British scenery and deeply eccentric characters.
