Slapstick- Slapstick was predominant in the earliest silent films, since they didn't need sound to be effective, and they were popular with non-English speaking audience in metropolitan areas. The term slapstick was taken from the wooden sticks that clowns slapped together to promote audience applause.
Deadpan- This form of comedy was best exemplified by the expression-less face of stoic comic hero buster Keaton. 
Verbal comedy- This was classically typified by the cruel verbal wit of W.C. Fields, the sexual innuendo of Mae West, or the verbal absurdity of dialogues in the Marx Brothers films, or later by the self-effacing, thoughtful humor of Woody Allen's literate comedies.]]> 2018-10-19 01:25:44 UTC https://padlet.com/tgilchy/toree_16/wish/294659955 tgilchy https://padlet.com/tgilchy/toree_16/wish/296886004 The comedy genre humorously exaggerates the situation, the language, action and characters in comedy movies.Comedy movies usually have happy endings, although the humour may have a serious side. ]]> 2018-10-25 12:22:17 UTC https://padlet.com/tgilchy/toree_16/wish/296886004
