Happiness

Director Todd Solondz
Genres Drama
Run time 134 mins Certificate 18

12th December 2004

'Happiness' is quite simply one of the most upsetting, challenging and hilarious films you will ever see. Not for those who are easily offended but then they are the kind of people who should really be watching this kind of groundbreaking cinema.

Solondz veers between unbearably uncomfortable situations to the broadest slapstick and back again so the viewer is never sure of their footing. The scene between father and son towards the end is one of the greatest I've ever seen

Please do yourself a favour and rent this- your life will never be the same again!
