Clockwatchers (1997)

Dark and funny and little seen
31 August 2022
Four temps form a temporary friendship amidst the boring mundanity of office life.

This predates Office Space but treads similar ground. It's not as loudly funny, instead treading on small moments of dark bleakness and sad reality. There isn't really a satisfying ending BUT that works perfectly with the story. It really holds true for anyone who's worked in this environment and for anyone who complains about a lack of women directors/stars/roles/centred projects here's one from 25 years ago that was unique, interesting, funny, black, and little seen. Great cast, great tone, and one that should be on everyone's radar.
