okay so i just rewatched napoleon dynamite for the first time in forever and realized how much i love movies where the side characters are just... doing their own thing and are somehow more memorable than the main plot??? like uncle rico trying to relive his high school glory days or pedro being so chill about running for class president it’s like they’re in their own little world and i cant get enough of that energy. does anyone have suggestions for other movies like that? where the side plots or random people steal the show?? i feel like wes anderson movies kind of hit that vibe sometimes but im open to anything... even if its super obscure lol. oh and i dont mean movies where the sidekick is just there for jokes, more like they feel fully fleshed out in their own bizarre way. i dunno seeing characters like that always makes me wanna write something with a cast of weirdos haha anyway im probably forgetting a ton of good examples so gimme your thoughts!!!
any recs for movies with super quirky side characters?
