No, i know that's not what you meant.
I know comedy's at the heart of his work, just that I tend to prefer it when he gives it a side role, rather than lets it take centre-stage. One of the best comedies I've seen in recent years is Sideways. Obviously the comedy is there, and very very funny, but it's used more as a natural part of the themes and situations it deals with, rather than the thing itself. I suppose it's the difference between comedy as a genre and comedy as an element.
