Maria Bamford: Weakness is the Brand

2020 • 75 minutes

About this movie

Maria Bamford is back and subjectively better than ever! Weakness is her brand, so get ready to feel much better about yourself. This Lady Dynamite explodes onstage (after 2 (two) naps with her husband Scott and 2 old, pillowy dogs). Let her be the poor example from which your greatness can be determined.

Ratings and reviews

Really good, some material I've seen before but really funny all around. Maria seemed really confident and the crowd was really into it, which is always nice to see. She speaks a lot clearer and stutters a lot less on this one, which might be a little off-brand but was helpful for me because sometimes I can't understand her when she leans into the mumbling (even though I like how it sounds). It's too bad that it didn't get on Netflix because I'm sure many more people would see it that way.

Haven't even watched yet but Maria is one of the best comics working today. If after I watch it sucks (it won't) I will update this review. If you haven't seen her work then check out Old Baby on Netflix or The Special Special Special - she really is one of the best alternative voices in comedy.

Maria is ALWAYS hilarious. This special is no exception!
