Joy

About This Movie

So, 'Joy' (2005) offers this quirky blend of comedy and drama, centering on Joy Levine, who embodies a real contrast—her apartment is a bit of a dump on the outside, but inside, it’s all sunshine and warmth. The pacing is kind of relaxed, letting you soak in the quirky little moments that make her life special. The whole thing kicks off when she auditions for a TV show called 'Gotta Be Happy,' which kind of flips her world upside down. There's this underlying theme of resilience and the pursuit of happiness, made more interesting by the characters she meets along the way. The performances feel genuine, and it’s a nice exploration of how one can find joy in the most unexpected places.
