The relationship "footage" is played straight, while the voice-over (with its most often wildly inaccurate theories) and elaborate visual metaphors add comedy. Among the themes explored is the possibility that, when describing their interpretation of other species' acts and feelings, humans may be getting everything wrong. == See also == [[1999 in film]] == External links == *{{imdb title|id=0165874|title=The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human}} *[http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1407578 A detailed description of the film at Everything2] {{DEFAULTSORT:Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human, The}} [[Category:1999 films]] [[Category:American films]] [[Category:Comedy films]] {{1990s-comedy-film-stub}}
