Which is more important: punctuality or civility?
Who is more annoying: lackadaisically late Lucy, or randomly ranting Randy? When someone perpetually arrives late, the entire group can be thrown off schedule. Annoying. However, if someone periodically loses their shit over small issues, everyone else will be constantly on edge. Stressful. These qualities are exemplified by the two main characters in the film, A Real Pain. The cousins travel through Poland with a tour group comprising five other people. Which would be your preferred travel companion? Which would you despise? The group is forced to wait for the one fella a handful of times, interfering with their itinerary. His cousin has no fewer than three blow-ups directed toward members of the group. The most severe and pointed of these rants is targeted at the tour leader, criticizing his methods of leading and teaching. Near film’s end, the tour leader spends a full minute sincerely thanking the ranter for his candor, concluding with a big hug. The guide begins walking away before saying “Thanks, David” as an afterthought to the pleasant, unpunctual cousin. Along with being laugh-out-loud funny, the scene also resolves the punctuality vs. civility hierarchy of importance. Be on time!
