I have to say that the only truly funny film I've seen in the last few years is Team America. Every other (so called) comedy I've seen has been nothing but drivel. I have a particular hatred for those British romantic comedies which always seem to feature Hugh Grant. If that's the best the UK can do...no wonder the film industry is in a mess. I watched
This Is England yesterday and, in my view, it is the best British film from the last twenty years (and most definitely
not a comedy).
But as they say...another man's poison .....and all that jazz
As for the bizarre - check out Todd Browning's
Freaks. Not a comedy but a very interesting little film from 1931.
