50 Favorite Comedies

By: alex peterso​n

a list of movies criterion does not recognize:
a girl in every port
our hospitality
the ladykillers
the man in the white suit
being two isn’t easy
hatari!
hold me while i’m naked
welcome, or no trespassing
MASH (!)
eijanaika
meet the feebles
dead alive
dr, akagi
the wayward cloud
this is clearly designed to advertise criterion releases, not canonize great movies. ridiculous.

i'm undereducated on the marx brothers, absolutely. just one of those things you never get around to, like mumblecore and jean vigo (the latter being the most egregious example of an auteur i have not seen) anyways, got a comedies list?

Some great films on here Alex, but no Marx Brothers? Really?

Yip i'm afraid there are still plenty of excellent and well known films not yet added to auteurs database! These lists are highlighting the absent ones- i wanted Wayward Cloud for another list, but those 2 by Mackendrick are established classics that should be on. They're adding all the time. Keep on to them
