Alicia I love this movie so much
Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
thelindalam Stefan Sagmeister didn't disappoint with this visually pleasing documentary that has been highly anticipated since I heard of the announcement on Kickstarter in 2011. Being a big Sagmeister fan myself, I've come to know that his ideas are often so brilliant and out of the ordinary and with the film it was consistent and evoked so many emotions. He's so candid with life -- with the raw unfiltered thoughts throughout his journey and experiment, to the hilarious behind the scene snippets behind his life mantras.I never thought I could relate to his story, but I ended up finding a bit of comfort and understanding through his personal experiences, especially when he touched upon love and relationships over the years. I'm definitely eager to see this film again.
n_a_d_i I saw the exhibition in MAK museum by accident, without knowing who Stefan is, what is he doing or what's about, but it confused me nicely and it stayed in me long after I exited the museum. It touched me.. After a year or so, now I've seen the movie. And.. I still have butterflies in my stomach.. :) It's easy and hard and minimal and not.. And the soundtrack is amazing.. I can't get it out of my head.. A must watch..
R. Spitz We really liked this happy film: Entertaining, thoughtful, inspiring. It has everything a good film needs: Big questions (about the meaning of life, about the meaning of death, about the meaning of sex and drugs and music), a compassionate hero an his quest story with surprising, funny and beautiful moments. Thank you!
anthonyfuria The Happy Film begins with an introductory disclaimer: "This film will not make you happy". I can attest to the fact that in my experience, this introductory disclaimer was indeed wrong. I found The Happy Film to be an entertaining and beautifully executed film with just the right amount of joy, humor, reflection, and despair. The exploration of a subject as revealing as one's own happiness is sure to be deeply personal at times, and Stefan Sagmeister's refreshingly candid journey from what makes us happy, to ultimately what holds us back from ever achieving it, doesn't shy away from uncomfortable introspection. The Happy Film succeeds as a very thoughtful and human film.
