Sonríe

About This Movie

So, 'Sonríe' is this quirky little gem from 2011. The premise revolves around Henry, this rather cantankerous birthday clown who's just not having it. It's a comedy, sure, but there’s a sort of melancholy undertone that sneaks up on you. The pacing is a bit uneven – almost like it mirrors Henry's own mood swings. The interactions between him and Coral, the frowning birthday girl, are both humorous and oddly touching. The performances are solid, with Henry's grumpiness juxtaposed against Coral’s innocence creating this dynamic that feels real. It’s the practical effects that add a nice touch too; they ground the film in a way that feels refreshing. Overall, it’s an interesting watch for those who appreciate character-driven comedy.
