So, 'Mailman' from '96, directed by Matthew Carnahan, is this weird little gem that kind of gets into the psyche of an obsessive mail carrier. The tone is a mix of quirky and absurd, really makes you think about how a guy can lose touch with reality over time. The pacing is a bit off-kilter, but it kind of works, creating this uncomfortable atmosphere. The practical effects, especially in some of the dream sequences, are pretty interesting for the era. The performances, particularly the lead, have this raw quality that adds to the whole vibe. It’s not just about laughs; there's a deeper commentary lurking beneath that I find pretty intriguing. Definitely distinct in its approach to comedy.
