Inside the Arthouse: Bad Shabbos

Did some say, “Comedy?” Right when we need it most, BAD SHABBOS is inviting you to dinner.  

You didn’t have to be Greek to enjoy MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING. So it stands to reason that you don’t need to be Jewish to enjoy BAD SHABBOS.

Winner of the Audience Award at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival, BAD SHABBOS has found favor both with ticket buyers and critics, who have given the film a 90% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Written by Daniel Robbins and Zach Weiner, and directed by Robbins, the film boasts a terrific cast including Kyra Sedgwick, David Paymer, Milana Vayntrub and Cliff “Method Man” Smith.

Hollywood has largely abandoned comedy. But this indie gem more than fills the gap, providing laughs that take the familiarity of family getting together for a meal, and mines comic gold from a rather unexpected situation.

Writer-director Daniel Robbins joins us for a conversation about BAD SHABBOS, on INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE, starting now…
