Putting the tragedy and comedy in tragicomedy.
Going in the pile with Melancholia & Shiva Baby; films about family gatherings that almost induced a panic attack.
There's focus breathing, blown out exposure, inaudible audio and some strange blocking - and it makes for a thrilling and uncomfortable adventure.
There's something about fly-on-the-wall shooting, capturing regular people talking about and doing "regular" things that will forever be the content I find the most 'this is cinema', and ironically, it is the most like theatre.
