Comedy is a
genre of
film in which the main emphasis is on
humour.
These films are designed to make the audience laugh through amusement
and most often work by exaggerating characteristics for humorous effect. Films in this style traditionally have a happy ending (
black comedy
being an exception). One of the oldest genres in film, some of the very
first silent movies were comedies, as slapstick comedy often relies on
visual depictions, without requiring sound. When sound films became more
prevalent during the 1920s, comedy films took another swing, as
laughter could result from burlesque situations but also dialogue.
Comedy, compared to other
film genres, puts much more focus on individual stars, with many former
stand-up comics
transitioning to the film industry due to their popularity. While many
comic films are lighthearted stories with no intent other than to amuse,
others contain political or social commentary
The actors in this film are good acquitances of mine and I admire their playing talents in this film of a very popular "father" theme.
