This Forgotten ’00s Comedy Is Worth Revisiting for Its Now-Iconic Cast

Comedy is a more subjective genre than any other, as rationalizing what makes something funny often comes down to a matter of personal opinion. As a result, it can be challenging for comedies to become global word-of-mouth hits, with audiences often being more driven to blockbuster movies that they know will be more attuned to their tastes. This explains why so many small-scale comedies come-and-go without much notice, even ones like Death at a Funeral directedby the great Frank Oz. Featuring a cast of actors who were mostly known for their more dramatic work, the film has since earned a cult following based on its unusual sense of humor.
