Happiness (1998)

November 06, 2024 • Gavin Wilton, Tom Brady, Rory Moore • Season 3 • Episode 23

This week we’re looking at Happiness!

One of the most controversial films of the 90s, this film will absolutely split the room believe me.

The film is about emotionally isolated individuals, desperate for some sort of fulfilment in life. What makes the film so interesting and controversial is how it tries to find the humanity in, for the most part, the worst kind of people.

If you’re a fan of very very dark humour, this is for you, but good luck.
