The Comedy (2012) is a drama film disguised as a comedy. It follows an aging hipster in Brooklyn who is about to inherit a fortune. Instead of embracing his financial security, he squanders his days with friends engaging in ironic games and irreverent humor. As the protagonist grapples with a purposeless life, the film explores themes of emptiness.

Inheriting a fortune is something most of us dream about. But what happens when the dream becomes a reality and you’re still left feeling empty? Meet Swanson, a hipster living in the heart of Brooklyn who seems strangely indifferent to his newfound wealth. Surrounded by his ironic, hipster crew, Swanson navigates a world of deadpan humor and questionable purpose. Is this just a hilarious look at a subculture, or is it a character study of a man grappling with the meaninglessness of life?
