The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005)
F***ing funny! Go see it NOW!
Instant classic! Steve Carell is the new Steve Martin, and this movie is the new Porky's. It doesn't show much nudity per se, but the dialogue and scenes are WILD. It made me horny (and I'm a girl)! Whatever your gender, I'd advise seeing it with pals rather than a date because it's so brutally honest that you might be able to enjoy it more without wondering if you're busted. But definitely go see it. It's an eye opener. :-)
P.S. Watch the esthetician's face in the waxing scene... because the waxing was 100% REAL (God bless Steve Carell), she almost ruined the take because she was trying so hard not to laugh! And Carell ad-libs something to her about this.
Wonderland (1997)
Funny Documentary!
Wonderland is a humorous look about the planned community of Levittown on Long Island, NY. Along with some brilliant historical footage, the film consists mainly of interviews with some of the town's kookier but endearingly genuine residents. The movie is sort of like Michael Moore's "Roger and Me" [about the town of Flint, MI] but without a cornball premise and without a self-absorbed director/narrator/"star". In fact, the best thing about this film is that talented director John O'Hagan stays completely out of it, letting his subjects tell the story. (The bartender who sings the national anthem is the funniest unstaged bit of film I've seen in years.) Someone made the comment that the film is mean-spirited but I don't think so. Yes, the people are often unintentionally hilarious... but no one forced them to do this movie. On the contrary, they seem to crave the attention. Mean-spirited is chasing someone around with a camera against their will, or being entertained by such.
