How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A gleeful romp that dismantles wealth and status through elaborate schemes and chaos, where the rich and poor swap positions to hilarious and satisfying effect. It's pure comedic spectacle driven by the joy of watching the powerful get their comeuppance.
