You want. He wants. She wants. But nobody wants what I want.
Our second Volunteer of the Month pick for September 2026 comes courtesy of Amrut, who has chosen Todd Solondz’s hilarious and deeply uncomfortably 1998 film Happiness, which we are presenting in a brand new 4K restoration thanks to Universal Pictures!
The story follows three sisters and the increasingly troubled people orbiting their lives, leading to a brutally funny look at the desperate search for connection in suburban America. The less plot explained about this one…the better!
Featuring Jane Adams, Dylan Baker, Lara Flynn Boyle, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Cynthia Stevenson, Happiness is a fearless portrait of how disturbing things can get when you’re searching for the purpose of life.
