'Happiness' by Todd Solondz

Happiness, the 1998 feature film by Grad Film Professor and alum Todd Solondz, has been added to the Criterion Collection with a new 4K digital restoration, supervised by director of photography Maryse Alberti.

The release includes new special features including a conversation between Solondz and Grad Film alum Charlotte Wells, an interview with lead actor Dylan Baker, and more. 

"As disturbingly funny as it is audaciously empathetic, auteur of unease Todd Solondz’s portrait of damaged souls reaching out for connection reveals the existential void underneath middle-class suburban 'normalcy'", according to the Criterion Collection.
