I mean movies that are just like regular modern comedy movies but take place in a historical setting. Some examples include “The Little Hours” and “A Million Ways to Die in the West.” Furthermore, does anybody have any more examples of movies like these?
Anachronistic comedy.
I mean, did you just make up that term? Or is that an actual genre comedy?
I don’t disagree that your term is adequately descriptive, I’m just curious as to whether that is a known name for this genre of comedy. I’m not trying to argue here.
I made it up… that’s all.
