LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Some believe that the Jennifer Lawrence movie 'No Hard Feelings' is evidence that the United States is approaching a recession. They claim there are methods to identify a potential recession without examining financial data, and one of them is by observing the media that people choose to consume. A recent bawdy comedy with Jennifer Lawrence is reminding viewers of comedies that were released when the economy was poor.

In the movie 'No Hard Feelings,' a lady (Lawrence) is recruited to try to have a sexual encounter with a secluded 19-year-old boy before he leaves for college. The R-rated movie is due out this summer, but based just on the teaser, many anticipate great humor, reports Indy100.

Recession ignites comedy

Given the bizarre and bawdy tone of the movie, many people think it might be a sign of a recession because similar movies were produced during the Great Recession. Between 2008 and 2012, other films, including 'Tropic Thunder,' 'Step Brothers,' 'The Hangover,' and 'Bridesmaids,' were also released. More networks ordered comedies and sitcoms than any other kind of programming, as reported by The Guardian in an article in 2012.

Even if the situation might not be ideal, the recession gave British television a golden era of comedy. The commissioning editors learned that audiences want to be pleased by classic comedies with lots of gags and recognizable actors. Watchable movies that help visualize the causes and consequences of the crisis include 'The Queen of Versailles,' '99 Homes,' 'The Big Short,' 'Inside Job,' and 'Margin Call,' as per Vox Media.



 

People usually opt for comedy to distract themselves when they are struggling financially. Some people are bracing themselves for the inevitable as a result of rising inflation, the cost-of-living problem impacting residents of big cities, and layoffs at significant corporations. On the other hand, it seems that a ton of stupid comedy follows every recession, so there's that to look forward to.
