Viva Films' Tragic Theater Is Both Tragic And Fun
1. Tragedy and comedy, as Woody Allen would make his character say in "Melinda and Melinda", are always in a relationship, and are sometimes married, even inseperable, like Agony and a 10am-Trip to Mandaue.
2. I must have laughed a Level 2/3 Laugh with Tikoy Aguiluz' Tragic Theater for two reasons:
2.1 I watched Woody Allen's gorgeous genius classic "Everybody Says I Love You" not more than 5 hours before Tragic Theater, which might have tricked me to see the comedy in all tragedy; to read Shakespeare in Taylor Swift; to see dooty in duty; to see the supposedly creepy zombies sitting on the theater seats not as rated-x horrifying monsters, but just as regular overworked yuppies chilling out in the theatre because the fight with plants (see Plants Vs Zombies) and the battles with The Pre-Walkers (see The Walking Dead) last night was, uhm, brain-draining.
2.2 An hour before Tragic I fast-forwarded scenes from Ryan Taborada's Black Mirror, a masterful depressing TV series about how technology sucks and doesn't suck, depending on what page you're reading in Ali Smith's new novel "How To Be Both".
