August1991 Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 I taught my daughter English with this movie. (If you have someone in the family who doesn't speak English well. turn on the sub-titles.) This movie can be re-watched. Sarcasm is saying the opposite of what you mean: "Smart move!" Irony is saying something smart, when everyone else knows that you're clueless. This movie is filled with irony. Why has it survived? I reckon the actors. The script was good. Direction also. But the actors were excellent. (Think of each action in each scene.) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August1991 Posted August 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Irony is saying something that you think is smart/correct - when everyone else can see and knows it's wrong. Irony requires an audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
