FUNNY PEOPLE

Funny People is an American comedy-drama movie, written, co-produced, and directed by Judd Apatow, and casting Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen as stand-up comedians.

George Simmons (Adam Sandler) is a very flourishing yet self-involved stand-up comic who realizes that he has an incurable blood illness and is given less than a year to live. Ira Wright (Weiner is his actual last name) (Seth Rogen) is a struggling up-and-coming stand-up humorist who works at a deli and has yet to find out his onstage qualities. One thing these different men have in common is that neither of them have any dear acquaintances. One night, George sees Ira when they perform at the same disco and he hires him to be his semi-private assistant and opening act at his performances. George and Ira started having an affair as George teaches Ira how to win the crowd and Ira helps the dying George find closure in his heritage. However, when George learns that his disorder has reduced and an old glow (Leslie Mann) reenters his life, his recent near death suffering inspires him to reconsider what is vital to him and what really gives meaning to his life.

The feature film was released on July 31, 2009 in North America, and on August 28, 2009 in the United Kingdom. amusing People currently has a 68% "Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It is similar to Punchline (1988, David Seltzer) and Der Himmel Kann Warten (2001, Brigitte Muller).
