Comedy is one of the biggest and most popular genres in filmmaking. But what truly defines a comedy? The simple answer might be the magical ability of making us laugh.
The simple joys of relatable everyday stories, the unexpected twists in a charming romance, or even the sharp wit of a dark humour satire that offers a unique perspective on reality. Whether it's a romantic comedy, a black comedy, or a situation comedy, the spectrum of humour is vast and endlessly entertaining.
We've gathered about 100 comedy movies from all over the world with a diverse range of comedic subgenres and are displayed on the G/F and LG1 Media Pillars.
For a taste of classic comedy, you should absolutely check out the Charlie Chaplin series. His film Modern Times is a real icon that you'll find many of its scenes still resonate with us today. If you're in the mood for something heartwarming, the romantic comedy About Time brings back that lovely charm. We also have plenty more, including dark comedies and crime comedies, all ready for you to discover.
We invite you to explore this collection and take a delightful break from your busy days. If you happen to need a DVD drive, borrow one from the G/F Service Counter or the LG1 Tech Item Kiosk.
