Comedy?

Just wondering, why is this billed as comedy on IMDB? I watched it and found it to be a very good nostalgic drama/romance, but comedy? Can anyone explain?

Maybe because of some of the slapstick fun pranks played on the characters throughout. Examples being the guy spitting from 2nd floor of theater and the guy that goes there just to sleep.
