Lazy cinema
Nov. 3rd, 2016 10:57 pmMy preferred film genres do not include 'uplifting' and/or 'feel good' romantic comedy dramas.
Looking at British and American films,* there are some exceptions: the glorious fantasies The Princess Bride and Stardust, for example, along with the more bitter sweet examples of A Life Less Ordinary, The Tall Guy, Tamara Drewe, Chasing Amy, Earth Girls Are Easy, His Girl Friday, Grosse Pointe Blank, Intolerable Cruelty, and the original 'Pete and Dud' Bedazzled. That's out of about a thousand titles listed on WP and I don't think I missed many I like.
What others should I consider?
* There are more French / Italian / Hong Kong etc ones, but we tend only to get to see the best of those.
