Films like What's Up, Doc?.

What's Up, Doc? (1972) reads as Cosy, breathless, gentle comedy / screwball, grounded in texture. Redemptive, intimate, tender. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
