So, 'Floating Off' is this offbeat TV movie from '83. You’ve got Jack Humpage, a businessman caught up in some quirky dealings with a merchant bank, and his secretary Janice, who adds a nice layer of charm to the mix. The pacing feels a bit like a slow burn, but it’s got this delightful awkwardness that grows on you. The comedy is subtle, intertwined with moments of drama that really capture the absurdity of the corporate world. Performances aren’t groundbreaking, but they bring a kind of relatable sincerity to the characters. The practical effects are minimal, but that adds to its charm. It's one of those films that feels like a snapshot of its era, with a tone that straddles lightheartedness and seriousness in a way that’s quite unique.
