Dzie? ?wira
So Pixelmatsch, Shii and I watched a movie together. Without Gorp, nobody dares to make a recommendation for what movie to watch, and that is quite troublesome. In the end, Pixelmatsch was unsure about his own suggestion, and we all encouraged him to make it. I can understand why it is hard to recommend this film. When a movie is funny in a black humor kind of way but not in a HAHAHA kind of way, you tend to wonder whether the other person would find it funny as well. Black humor is something so strangely regional that you can never be sure whether it would reach someone from another culture.
“Dzie? ?wira” is the perfect movie to watch with other people. Just like most comedies are better when you watch them with a bunch of other people laughing, there are so many scenes in the film worth making short comments about. Pixelmatsch also says that the film is very Polish, and I have a very small understanding as to what he means. The self-deprecating satire on how everyone hates each other – it looks quite familiar. Also, the bus repositioning scenes were absolutely brilliant, and hey I have my favorite spots in the subway too! I also hate noisy neighbors, and I am all too familiar with a society which complains about everything. Despite not being polish at all, “Dzie? ?wira” speaks to me like most Danish black comedies do.
In essence, the film is an unlikely gem and I personally found it extremely enjoyable. The world needs more movies like this.
