"A great comedy is more than a distraction, but a film that tells its story naturally through a comedic lens. Often, it is easier to wrestle with ideas if they are presented in a way that is both funny and informative, and filmmakers are able to take risks with their storytelling if they trust that the audience is enjoying the ride. Although humor can be extremely subjective, the power of a well told story is universal.
Film fans will often want to look beyond the mainstream successes and look for comedy films that they may have missed in their initial runs. Currently, Netflix has a terrific library of recent films, many of which are comedies, and the streaming service offers cinephiles the chance to check out some terrific films that have flown under the radar."
