I remember MASH being devoid of music as well.

Is there a list of movies that have no or very little music?

That laughter track, however…

I think they are referring to the movie, which (I believe) did not have a laugh track.

If you can find it there was a DVD release of the tv series where the laugh track could be disabled. It's so much better.

Only the American release of the TV show had the laugh track. Whole different show without, isn't it?

Ahh I see, nice :)

Thankfully the BBC aired the MASH episodes that were without the laughter track when I was watching it years (decades) ago. However, I've seen it more recently on one of the minor UK Freeview channels, and that came with laughter added... which eventually grates.

“Creep” has no music and it made it so much better for me. I really enjoyed that film.

I've run into more Patrick Batemans than Anton Chigurhs in my career.

Yeah but how many of them snapped and killed some people? I think that's part of why that movie did well: it portrays a personality type that many can relate to. But it doesn't mean that taking the extra step from someone who just doesn't give a shit about others to someone willing to stab them to death is realistic.

I can relate.

My profession isn’t known for its empathy.

I thought the Bateman we saw was his fugue dissociated interpretation

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

The idea was it was supposed to be him losing track of the barrier between reality and his delusions. He did kill a girl in that apartment, it was not the ludicrously long chase we see though, for example.
