I love comedies that are like one step away from being tragedies. Wacky lighthearted sitcoms that are actually really really sad shows when you stop to actually think about literally any of the characters' lives or backstories. Silly goofy comedy movies that are really silly and goofy until that one moment where they're suddenly not anymore.

i love it when a film has its guts out. when the practical effects are visceral and slimy and slightly janky and clearly made by human hands, when green screen is used as a canvas for art rather than a substitute for reality, when the sets look like theatre pieces, when the lighting is unashamedly unrealistic because fuck it - it comes from the same place as the music, when the acting is messy and unfettered by irony, when you can feel the presence of the crew just offscreen pouring in months of hard work and late nights and sweat and love. when a film stops trying to be realistic and lets itself be raw and weird and INTERESTING

edit: glad people are enjoying this post! I originally wrote it about Bunny and the Bull (2009), which is my favourite film ever and you can watch it for free on youtube and in this google drive. enjoy! :)

*Bunny and the Bull spoilers*

If I had a nickel for every time Simon Farnaby played a horny dead guy with a penchant for betting on horses, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice.

I hate when a piece of media means so much to you that you can't even communicate it properly.

You'll be like "that movie/show/book is so important to me" and they'll be like "yeah lol I thought it was really good too!" and you'll be like "no you don’t understand"

But there's no real way to say to someone "that movie/show/book made me feel emotions I haven't felt before or since. I don’t think I'm quite the same person I was before I first watched it. That feels like a different person. It shifted me on a molecular level. Just thinking about it gives me a physical ache in my chest. Like a physical pain. Just at the thought. Everything makes me think of it. I sit awake at night just thinking about it. Everything about it is perfect and if you don't agree then you just Don't Get It. You could never get it. Not like I do. It's not just a show/movie/book. Not to me." without sounding utterly deranged.

So instead you just say "it's my favourite and I like it a lot :)"
