“I Used To Be Funny” is a compelling dark dramedy that charts the emotional journey of Sam Cowell, played by the impressive Rachel Sennott.
Sam is an aspiring stand-up comedian and au pair who battles PTSD while grappling with a crucial decision: whether to help search for Brooke (Olga Petsa), a missing teenager she once cared for.
The film oscillates between two timelines—the present, where Sam is attempting to overcome her trauma and return to the comedy stage, and the past, where her memories of Brooke’s disappearance haunt her.
This structure deepens the narrative, highlighting Sam’s internal conflict and emotional struggles.
Ally Pankiw’s debut feature as a writer and director is humorous and profoundly moving. “I Used To Be Funny” offers an unflinching and fresh perspective on trauma and recovery, examining their impact on our relationships and communities.
This film’s blend of humor and heartbreak provides a poignant and thought-provoking viewing experience.
