AFF: Movie #4

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

Film can be performance art. The performances in this film showcase just that. So bring your ticket to the theatre, find your seat, and wait for the curtains to go up for a special screening of…

The Court Jester

After much consideration, I’ve decided to show a film that is very unique and very special to me. It’s one of the films I grew up watching that managed to become a part of who I am: both as a filmmaker and as a person. Much of the style of humor in this film influenced my own brand of comedy. (I even wanted to remake it or redo some scenes in my own movies!) So if I’ve ever made you laugh, then you’ll probably laugh watching this film. It’s a classic film in my opinion, one of the first “genre-spoofs.” There’s singing, dancing, action, romance, and more. I don’t usually enjoy musicals or romantic comedies, so this certainly is an exception.

There’s only one way to see why I like it so much…. by watching it!
