The 35 Best Comedy Films of All Time (Harper's Bazaar)
"Choosing the funniest movies to have ever graced a screen is a personal, subjective, and quite honestly arbitrary task, but it's also one we're gleefully taking on. Because at the end of the day, no matter one's preference in cinematic humor—be it slapstick, deadpan, raunch, pitch black, situational, satirical, the list goes on—a laugh is a laugh. And laughter, as they say, is, well, you know. Here, we're offering a smorgasbord of comedic fare, ranging from those lowbrow cult classics everyone can quote to the more elevated riots whose wit, commentary, and wise cracks just get better with subsequent viewings. Hopefully, your favorites are represented, but if not, keep checking back, as we'll be sure to update our list as more originals become viewing essentials and viral newbies assume their rightful spots in forever fandom." - harpersbazaar.com
