will you fuck me? no i jerk off instead

The Song of Songs for angry youths everywhere! Projects a dark and sado-masochist view of American Suburbia, revelling in gross exaggerations and baroque parodies, and gleefully smearing all characters in gores and feces.
You will like this film if you are in your adolescence and hate the whole universe, and if you prefer to believe all adults are devious, under-sexed, "annimals of two backs", and if, as a result, you don't wish to ever grow up to register truths or half-truths, instead of cosy demonic fantasies and pent-up venom.
Which is to say, if you are an American of 15-35 years of age, self-righteous, jaundiced, poorly adjusted, out of tune with love, friendship and any kind of fulfilling relationship, and out of touch with reality.

個(gè)人覺得Happiness這個(gè)題目有點(diǎn)籠統(tǒng)，有點(diǎn)乏力，但片子實(shí)在太牛了。
以前沒看過Todd Solondz的電影，看了此片后興奮得接連幾天看了另外幾部他的作品。Welcome to the Dollhouse 歡迎來到玩具屋（1995），Palindromes 回文（2004），Life During Wartime 戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)時(shí)期的生活（2009，算happiness的續(xù)集）。可惜喜愛的程度和年份增長(zhǎng)成反比。
他的片子（除了最近的那部）有種很強(qiáng)烈的八九十年代的味道。就是記憶里那時(shí)候的人花大濃妝，頂個(gè)高高的劉海的那種俗氣的感覺。有服裝道具布景的關(guān)系，有選角的關(guān)系（導(dǎo)演真偏愛丑角?。?，還有就是用平板的日光和柔光吧。畫面的庸俗恰好和本片肥皂劇似的情節(jié)呼應(yīng)，真是太恰當(dāng)了。
兩個(gè)多小時(shí)的電影一點(diǎn)不覺得長(zhǎng)，一直在大笑或撲哧中度過，大概極端符合我的惡趣味吧。讓我笑得如此會(huì)心的怕只有Luis Bu?uel的某些電影了吧。尤其喜歡那個(gè)愛提問題的小男孩，每次都猶猶豫豫但說的話又很赤裸。孌童癖的爸爸這個(gè)演員（Dylan Baker）選的太好了，比“戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)時(shí)期的生活”里那個(gè)逼真多了，那種掩飾不掉的欲望盡在眼底

愛我就讓我快樂：1998推薦，看這個(gè)片子得要有合適的情緒
