Do you like taboo subject matter in your movies? Well, the 547th edition of Have You Ever Seen is filled with it. There's pedophilia, suicide, violent sex fantasies, masturbation, infidelity and so much misery...yet writer/director Todd Solondz somehow also made Happiness entertaining. It's complicated material and it's more honest than most movies are about the horrible people within, but they're relatable human beings. Even the pedophile is. We got quite personal in this review and we talked about censorship and the irrational people who have the bullhorn these days. So trigger warning if you belong in that camp, but also trigger warning in general because this dark movie is often very funny and our gallows humour came out repeatedly. Maybe our brains are as broken as the good dad who's bad enough to abuse little boys. So scarf down a tuna fish sandwich and see if you can navigate your way through love and life as we get real in our talk about Happiness. Sparkplug Coffee is our long-running sponsor.
