@leffe@social.linux.pizza Alas, I think I've seen everything that the bold Buster made; have seen John Malkovich - found it kind of funny but really university-canteen humour rather than a belly-laugh. Haven't heard of Shiva Baby - what's it about?

@sinabhfuil@mastodon.ie Shiva Baby is about a young Jewish woman in New York, attending a funeral and the week long shiva (mourning period) after. She is preoccupied with her bisexual relationships and her messy life in general. I really liked it. There's a category in Mubi called Funny Ha-ha, but I don't see anything sticking out there right now that I would consider a pure comedy. Tavern Man is a nice 15-minute short from Aki Kaurismäki. Not laugh out loud funny, but very enjoyable, like all his films.
