This reminds me of a movie my sister in law made me watch. I can't remember the title, but it's a family that's living in a castle and the father is a struggling author, the mother is eccentric, and the movie itself is narrated by one of the daughters who I think is being set up with local nobility because castles and stuff. Not totally sure of the details, but it was quite quirky. All I remember of it is "the cat sat on the mat."
