I Used To Be Funny is Ally Pankiw's feature-length directorial debut. She's previously helmed episodes of Black Mirror and The Great.
Even though the world is still recovering from her earth-shaking delivery of “your parents are upper middle class” in Bodies Bodies Bodies , Rachel Sennott is back with yet another sardonic but personally miserable protagonist in I Used To Be Funny , the feature-length debut from director Ally Pankiw . While Sennott has infused all of her characters with her unique brand of unhinged humor, this one might hit closest to home.
“Brooke is the one person who doesn’t pity me. She hates me... which is refreshing,” she says about her missing nanny charge later on. “I wanted to explore what the ups and downs of recovery from trauma actually look like,” Pankiw said of the film in a director’s statement . “It’s less often a tale of revenge or vengeance or pure devastation, but rather a slow, lifelong repairing of the relationships that shape us and a reclaiming of our own comedic voices and joy.
