Funny Ha Ha (2002)
Country: US
Technical: col/1.37:1 85m
Director: Andrew Bujalski
Cast: Kate Dollenmayer, Christian Rudder, Jennifer L. Schaper
Synopsis:
A twenty-something graduate negotiates with difficulty the transition to a settled life, temping, partying, and hesitating over whom to go out with until it is too late.
Review:
Egregious early example of the 'mumblecore' genre of independent film-making, rather like a Rohmer comedy except that the dialogue is without interest and the ending arbitrary. The non-professional actors, in particular Dollenmayer, do a decent job of portraying the aimlessness of millennials faced with a multiplicity of life choices, also reflected in their inchoate sentence patterns, but the amateurishness is all-pervasive.
