Leatherheads

There is little that is wrong with this film, really. It’s funny and sweet and the right kind of clever. But it is an anachronism. The jokes get laughs not necessarily because they are funny now, but because they were funny then and we know it. The style so perfectly mimics something decades old, with scenes that are a bit longer than their contemporary counterpoints might be, and with a wink and a smile the actors pay homage to actors long gone.
