Cody MacKenzie and his wife Judy have been invited to a very special party, and he'd better go and behave himself if he knows what's good for him. Judy thinks going is a great career move for Cody, but he is only going to rub elbows (or anything else) with his dream girl... his beautiful boss Elizabeth Sheridan.
Join Cody in this hilarious, award-winning comedy as he attempts to wreck the party with his sledgehammer wit, aiming it at everything from sex and childbirth to televangelism. But if he's not careful, he might just learn something about love and friendship. See for yourself why audiences and independent film fans everywhere are cheering for LAUGHING BOY!
Filmed in Houston, TX
I expected only a joke-filled, silly, thin plot, because of the first sketch. However, the opening is the least successful part of this film, and the film's true, deeper meaning sneaks in slowly.
The true purpose of the film lies in the use of familiar characters that are confronted by issues of social and personal conformity. By use of a good story line, the film is engaging, as well as both funny AND thoughtful.
I'd recommend this DVD for the excellent cast and heart-felt production.
