This film is absolutely first class, their was a real moment of comedy genius, art of silence at its purest that just hit with perfection. I found myself laughing about this one moment throughout the whole film, through the credits and even on the train home, wile writing this review I am still giggling. This film is both light and dark in the style of Ricky Gervais "After Life" which so many films recently are trying to replicate, with little hitting the mark, but American Fiction does, real laugh out loud dark comedy, accompanied with that toe curling awkwardness that will make you squirm in your seats and wish you had a duvet to pull over your eyes. I imagine I will still be laughing about this film for a very long time.
