You hear part of an interview in which a film director talks about his favourite movie. Why does he like the film?

Interviewer: So, do you have a favourite movie?
Director: Oh ... that’s difficult. Well ... I think it has to be The Agents, the Mel Rivers movie. I like it because it reminds you that no matter how hard life is, or how many times you get knocked down by bad situations, things can get a whole lot worse.
Interviewer: When did you first see it?
Director: On television, late one night... I must have been about 16. There were moments when I just couldn’t stop laughing. It’s anarchic and silly, but it’s very warm. I love the friendship that develops between the two main characters.
