I Used to Be Funny (dir. Ally Pankiw) x VIFF 2023.
Rachel Sennott continues a streak of interesting roles suited to her endearingly chaotic screen presence. She shows her wide range of acting skills as an aspiring Toronto stand-up comedian and full-time nanny dealing with PTSD after a traumatic event. Her central performance and chemistry with supporting characters captivates but the back-and-forth timeline of unfortunate events in the past and present clunkily unfold and feel overly ambitious for the relatively straightforwars story of overcoming trauma.
Screening at the 2023 Vancouver International Film Festival as part of the Northern Lights series at the Rio Theatre on Oct. 3 and International Village on Oct. 5.

Mini-review:
I had been waiting for this for a long time, and sadly, I'm not sure it met my expectations. Like, all the episodes were pretty fun and I was never bored, but there just wasn't anything particularly special about any of them. The show no longer feels as groundbreaking and timeless as it did in its best episodes. In fact, a lot of these stories lean way more into horror-comedy than into science-fiction. There's nothing bad about that per se (I'm a huge fan of horror comedies), it just... didn't feel like Black Mirror. I don't know, I guess this was the weakest season so far imho. If I had to pick one episode, I think Devil 79 was the one I enjoyed the most, mainly because Anjana Vasan and Paapa Essiedu had fantastic chemistry. That being said, I hope they make more seasons, cause this show is fun even its stories aren't particularly remarkable.
