Writer-director Alison Bagnall's films don't lack for compassionate, screwball humor, but their unique charms tend to be indivisible from their eccentricities.

Funny Bunny
Overview
Gene spends his days canvassing about childhood obesity. One day he canvasses Titty, an emotionally-arrested 19-year-old who has successfully sued his own father to win back a large inheritance and gotten himself disowned in the process. Gene discovers that Titty has an ongoing online relationship with the beautiful but reclusive Ginger, who is an animal activist. Gene convinces Titty to make a pilgrimage to meet Ginger where the two men form a close bond despite both of them being drawn to the enigmatic Ginger, who is in need of rescue.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Three characters in various states of arrested development would be a tall order for most films, and it proves too much for one as enamored of the fey and absurd as Alison Bagnall's "Funny Bunny."
We watch three emotionally stunted strangers act out like spoiled, overgrown adolescents, forming a love triangle that's not bizarre so much as obnoxious. But we never learn what draws these inarticulate characters together beyond mutual estrangement.
