Review

 

Modern day Hollywood, and a self-proclaimed film legend bribes his son to document his death under the unquestioning
assumption that it will be historically important. The result... In Memory Of My Father, a twisted celebration of a Hollywood family narcissistically dealing with an eventfully frustrating day, regardless of the distracting centerpiece which they're forced to endure - Daddy's corpse.

With the tinted tonality of Six Feet Under, and the inappropriate wit of Curb Your Enthusiasm, Writer/Director/Actor Christopher Jaymes steers us through Daddy's wake, alongside his two brothers, his ex, his new teenage girlfriend, his Dad's shopaholic twenty-something partner and a host of neurotic relatives and friends.

I found this film hard going, the box suggests that it is a laugh out loud comedy. It isn't. The film plays like the royal tenenbaums and funny in a very wry way. it is an intelligent comedy that requires thinking about. It is wonderfully acted and has some fantastic music by belle and sebastian. It is not the riot that it suggests and will not suit for a family night in or light hearted bit of entertaiment.
