	Comedy Films
		Comedies usually come in two general formats: comedian-led (with well-timed gags, jokes, or sketches) and situation-comedies that are told within a narrative.
		It was typical of the films of Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, W. Fields, The Three Stooges, the stunts of Harold Lloyd in Safety Last (1923), and Mack Sennett's silent era shorts (for example, the Keystone Kops).
		Screwball comedies, a sub-genre of romantic comedy films, was predominant from the mid-1930s to the mid-1940s.

		Adventure films are set in an exotic location or different historical period, from the middle ages through the 19th century.
		In the hard-boiled detective film, crime becomes a dark metaphor that is symptomatic of what is wrong with society, rather than simply a single aberration from the norm.
		Film noir was primarily made in a cycle during the 1940s and into the 1950s, but includes work made in previous and subsequent years that invoke the feel and mood of classical film noir.

	The Vatican Film List
		Though often characterized, somewhat misleadingly, as “the Vatican’s top films,”; the list is meant neither as a set of definitive or magisterial “top fifteen” lists nor to establish these particular films as definitely more worthwhile than any film that was not included.
		Titled simply “Some Important Films,”; the list is simply a cross section of outstanding films, chosen by a committee of twelve international movie scholars appointed by the head of the pontifical commission, Archbishop John Foley.
		Thus, the films listed in, for instance, the “Values” category possess special moral worth, but that doesn’t mean that they are perfect even with respect to moral content — and certainly not with respect to religious or artistic significance.

		Filmed live in South Hampton, with an admittedly thin plot, Richie and Eddie, unrestrained by TV censors try and live life to it’s fullest.
		Made at the end of Cook and Moore's partnership this is not the squeaky clean comedy of old, but a stunningly profane and drunken tirade against all that is generally nice and politically correct.
		This film has enough foul language in it to make sailors blush and it is a particularly good companion piece to Dying of Laughter as the mutual venom and bitterness the two feel is barely contained and bursts through the already ugly façade.

		And don't give me the claim that filmmaking is somehow different, all filming departs from reality, so truth and lies exist for written media and not for film.
		If anything, a documentary film purports to be less symbolic and more real: the viewer is shown things, and assumes he is himself seeing reality, rather than hearing a speaker's description, possibly unfair or deceptive, of it.
		[F]aced with a thoroughly truthful and honest film, those who object to the film's political points are left with the choice of debating us on the issues in the film or resorting to character assassination." Source.
