Directed by Rick Alverson
Starring: Tim Heidecker, James Murphy
and Eric Wareheim.
Its audience may be self-selective in the extreme, but few films
have better articulated the limits of irony as a force field against the world.
– A.V. CLUB
It’s a meaty film, filled with ideas unobscured by any generic narrative string,
a move that shows not only the confidence of the director but his respect of the audience.
This is one that’ll have people talking.
– INDIEWIRE
Alverson just wants people to care, even if that subsequent emotion
takes on the form of hate, and as such, “The Comedy” has my begrudging respect.
