What are some fictional side characters that have deeply resonated with you?
Have you ever read a novel, comic, manga, watched a movie, play, TV show etc., and you found yourself invested in a side character? Ever cared for and felt more intrigued by that side character than the mains? If so, what character was it and what are some.things that make you so interested in them?
Four Weddings and a Funeral is a movie I adore entirely for the side characters, and pretty much ignore the two main characters and storyline completely.
The main friend group feels so real and alive and lovely, they're charming and funny, and watching them be friends at their weddings and funeral feels like optimistic slice-of-life escapism. And beyond that, pretty much every other side character is memorable and funny and a joy to watch, especially Rowan Atkinson as the anxious priest. Great movie, 10/10, can't remember the main characters at all.
dammit. now i have to watch it. ive been avoiding it for awhile.
