If Toni Erdmann hit the spot, these will too

Both land wit and play at once

Contemplative where it counts, melancholy underneath
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

Comedy with a pulse of wit, in both cases
The difference: Sits closer to history than Toni Erdmann does

Drama with a pulse of play, in both cases
The difference: 28 years apart, and the 1980s show

Both run contemplative where it counts
