She's Funny That Way: Delightful comedy

A film that comes to remind everyone, that comedies are also made of good stories, in this time where many comedy movies are more like stand-up acts, heavily dependent on isolated jokes to be funny.

She's Funny That Way

She's Funny That Way, takes the audience for a ride through the detours of life, and its unexpected encounters. Having a Woody Allen like style, it is by no means a realistic representation of how things happen, but instead, is a light and enjoyable fantasy, with a perhaps nicely old fashioned approach to storytelling. [...]

This film sees Izzy (Imogen Poots), tell the story of how she went from call girl to actress, in the most unlikely of circumstances. As the narrative unfolds, connections between characters are revealed, and their unresolved issues and tensions are shown.

The characters' personalities are well defined, and are the pivot of the comedy, being built around the contrasts and conflicts between them.

She's Funny That Way counts on a well selected cast, with actors Owen Wilson, Rhys Ifans, Jennifer Aniston, Kathryn Hahn, Will Forte appropriately matching their respective characters. Though the real gem is Imogen Poots, with a wonderfully expressive performance, that one could say is worthy of a dramatic role.
