Plots(1)
Robert De Niro is Jackie Burke, an angry, uncompromising insult comic several decades past his prime-time fame on a popular sitcom. Doing stand up on Nostalgia Night at a comedy club, he assaults a heckler who records the fight for his web podcast, and ends up behind bars for a month when he refuses to apologize. While serving out his sentence doing community service at a food bank, he meets Harmony (a terrific turn from Leslie Mann) a much younger soulmate with her own anger management issues. It's an encounter that will upend his life. (Palm Springs International Film Festival)
