I just clicked this video to say this😂. yes I agree with WatchMojo, it’s a drama/comedy but I agree with you, LIFE doesn’t fit here. It is a terrific and hilarious movie and definitely underrated, but it’s definitely not a “serious” movie. Harlem Nights would have worked too, and they could have added Richard Pryor as well. Been a while since I’ve seen it but I remember it having some funny moments but being serious most of the time.

@@damarbell6733 true. But I feel it has a little too much comedy to take it entirely seriously. I agree with you it’s emotional but there’s some really silly scenes that keep me from taking it completely seriously. I can take certain scenes entirely seriously, like the Cookie scene( I’m trying to avoid spoilers)and the montage of the years passing by. But there’s scenes I can’t take seriously whatsoever that are funny but really silly, like the dock scene at the start, The Boom Boom Room scene, and the scene were Ray is reading mail are just too silly to be taken seriously

It had plenty of moments where tragedy was addressed with sincere performances. The whole thing wasn't a joke. The leads weren't just playing for laughs the whole time. Yes, there were many moments containing humor, but the tragedy within the humor was the focal point of the film. It's a great example of the term "dramedy". It worked because of the of the actors giving multi-toned performances.

@alaza61
@alaza61 Год назад
Tom Hanks was a frequently comedic actor. Keyword is Actor. He wasn't an actual comedian within the context of how it's defined today. Therefore, him transitioning to dramatic roles more consistently just means he successfully expanded his niche. He's an actor...who can shift his tone based on the nature of the script/story. Including him would mean you'd have to consider every actor who ever played a humorous role more than once a comedian. You'd have to call Nicolas Cage, Richard Dreyfuss, Samuel L. Jackson, Jack Lemmon, and so forth comedians too. This appears to be a list for people who were seen as comics who built a film career on that basis alone and then made a leap to heavier content.

You are correct. Six Degrees of Separation came out in 1993, although it’s thought of as a comedy/drama. In fact, IMDb lists it as a comedy first.

Tom Hanks didn't build a brand as a comedian. He's an actor who has done comedic roles. Also, when performers who do comedy AND act say "acting is easy, comedy is hard", it's usually in reference to the contrast of acting out a scripted character and creating/performing original material for laughs.

He was also in an incredible 1992 TV movie "Doing Time on Maple Drive", in an incredible dramatic turn.

“The Boys In The Band”, “The Good Girl”, “Life”, “The King Of Comedy”, “Can You Ever Forgive Me”, “Lost In Translation” and “Nashville” aren’t “serious movies.”

Ray Romano’s character in The Big Sick had comedic elements but was overall a pretty serious/delicate role and he knocked it out the park.

Man I forgot about the movie Life. That sh*t was amazing like actually amazing. Such an underrated film about how friendship can have its ups and downs and how far it can really go and how long it actually lasts. One of the best friendship movies ever
