You placed some flicks on my radar. As Mencken said in hius essay "The Burden of Humor," comedy doesn;t get the respect that drama gets. Look at the Oscars. Best 100 films. How many comedies are there? WELL, TWO. DUCK SOUP AND STRANGELOVE. How many Shakespeare comedies are studied? MOLIERE? Comedy is harder than drama. It's harder to make someone laugh than cry or "think deeply."
