{4.5\/5} “It’s just a bout of anticipatory nostalgia.”<\/p>\n
Welcome to Happiness<\/strong>, released in 2015<\/p>\n Woody is a children’s book author who has an apartment with an unusual feature. There’s a portal in the closet. When people show up unexpectedly to his place he asks them a few questions, and if they answer correctly he shows them the closet. He hasn’t been through the portal himself, but he’s happy to offer this service.<\/p>\n Some parts can seem a bit random until you see how they fit together.<\/p>\n It’s about people who are happy, people who are not, and people who get a chance to revisit and feel better about some past tragedy in their life. It’s about how you never know what effects an event will have.<\/p>\n There are odd moments that might not fit, but much of it I liked a lot.<\/p>\n Keegan-Michael Key’s character is very funny.<\/p>\n Stars Kyle Gallner, Olivia Thirlby, Molly C. Quinn, and Nick Offerman. Directed by Oliver Thompson (editor on the documentary Ali & Cavett: The Tale of the Tapes<\/strong>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" {4.5\/5} “It’s just a bout of anticipatory nostalgia.” Welcome to Happiness, released in 2015 Woody is a children’s book author who has an apartment with an unusual feature.
