Death at a Funeral.
Have you ever been at a wedding where the bride runs away with the best man?
Ever been at a funeral where someone reveals dark, dirty secrets about the deceased?
No?
Yet how many movies, plays, and television shows are swarming with these events?
Dozens.
Possibly hundreds.
And why?
We like the improbable.
The unlikely.
The impossible.
We relish in the excitement of the absurd.
We enjoy the thrill of the unimaginable.
And are somehow subconsciously grateful that the bizarre is left to the imagination of great artists, and not at cousin Gina's third wedding.
