Death at a Funeral (2010)

The film uses a secret gay relationship as a comedic plot device, framing it as a source of scandal and blackmail. The character representing the relationship is an antagonist, and the family's reactions reinforce the idea of queer identity as something shameful to be hidden, rather than affirmed or respected.

The 2010 film is a remake of the 2007 British film. Several key characters, including Daniel, Robert, and Jane, who were portrayed by white actors in the original, are portrayed by Black actors in the remake, constituting multiple instances of race swapping.

The film uses a Christian funeral as a setting to expose family dysfunction, hypocrisy, and chaos. While not directly critiquing Christian doctrine, the narrative consistently undermines the solemnity and moral integrity of the religious rite through the characters' farcical actions and self-serving motives, portraying a superficial adherence to faith.
