Correct. Andrew's a genius. He and Florence are magic together in, WE LIVE IN TIME. They're heartbreaking and charming and spend the entire film in a high-wire act of humanity and constraint. And yes I am Deadpool BUT I will take a second and speak up in defense of comedy.
And yes I am Deadpool BUT I will take a second and speak up in defense of comedy. Dramatic work is difficult. And we're also meant to SEE it's difficult which is one of the reasons it feels visceral and effective.
Comedy is also very difficult. But has an added dimension in that it's meant to look and feel effortless. You intentionally hide the stitching and unstitching.
I think both disciplines are beautiful. And both work beautifully together. Comedy and drama subsist on tension. Both thrive when subverting expectation. Both thrive backstopped by real emotion.
