Funniest Comedies I've Seen (Work In Progress)
Many movies on my "Favorites" list are on this list as well, but many of them are a different rank. This is because I rank the movies on this list solely due to their comedic/laughter value, while in my Favorites List I also take in consideration their overall artitic assets (Acting, Directing, Cinematography etc.) as well as replaying factor.

Dazed and Confused (1993, R)
"Hangout Comedies" are a favourite of mine, and "Dazed and Confused" is one of its main gems. It's realistic and familiar portrayal of teenagers is seldomly replicated, the soundtrack is one of the best ever and it's so addictingly rewatchable. Rory Cochrane and Matthew McCoughney steal the show with their hilarious dialogue and the idea of finding yourself in the midst of teenagehood resonates. |

Love Actually (2003, R)
I first watched LA at a very depressing time of my life. It was the holiday season, and my heart was broken because the girl I love was going out with this complete jackass. I was in tremendous pain, but I watched this movie and I felt a regenerative power that I have seldom felt before or since. The music is wonderful, more so because it sets the mood of nostalgia and melancholy so wonderfully. This movie has a large amount the crème de la crème of British film on its cast (and some non-Brits too). Everyone and everything is so beautiful, filled with Curtis' trademark wit and warmth. I have seen this film dozens of times and it still works it's always there to cheer me up. |
