If understatement is a virtue, then “Wildlife,” a film adaptation of Richard Ford’s 1990 novel, has virtue to spare. This drama about the dissolution of a marriage marks the directorial debut of actor Paul Dano (“There Will be Blood”), who wrote the screenplay with his partner, Zoe Kazan (“Ruby Sparks”). Jake Gyllenhaal (“Brokeback Mountain”), Carey Mulligan (“Mudbound”) and Ed Oxenbould (“Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”) play members of a family in crisis.
