Funny People is a hilarious comedy-drama directed by Judd Apatow (Knocked Up) and starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen.
Famous comedian George Simmions is diagnosed with a terminal illness and is given one year to live. But the egocentric superstar has no real friends to confide in and lost the love of his life many years ago.
One night George meets Ira, a struggling unknown comedian who's performing at the same club as him. George takes an instant shine to Ira and offers to employ him as his personal assistant, to help him through his troubling... time and to be his opening act.
But as he's forced to re-evaluate what is important to him, George begins to realise that he doesn't need a PA at all, he needs a friend!
This movie is a good mix of laughs, emotional depth and complex characters.
