Laughology
- The DVD, UK (Great Britain)
It
may be more than coincidental that our Celtic stage name Gáirín
means "a little bit o' laughter, like a chuckle" for
this commercial client! We checked out their DVD The Meaning of
Laugh. It's the world's first feature length documentary to address
the topic of laughter! Watching the DVD, we learned a lot about
how important it is to laugh! We always thought so and now you
can find out why...
'Plato hated it, the Bible discouraged it and psychologists
once thought it would drive you insane. When Albert realises he's
forgotten how to laugh, he embarks upon a global investigation
into this mysterious physical phenomenon, spanning neuroscientists,
holy laughter groups and the man with the most contagious laugh
in the world. "Haahaahaahaa", pants prehistoric man, excitedly
clubbing another man over the head. He's having fun, the man is
his friend, and this is the elemental sound of laughter. A couple
of million years later, we find Albert sitting in his dressing
gown in a grey city apartment. It's a picture of stress and exhaustion
broken only by the giggle of his baby daughter. "Who taught this
baby to laugh?"
