Standing Up, Falling Down
Coming soon
Synopsis
Scott (Ben Schwartz) is a struggling stand-up comedian, his career in a tailspin. Out of options, he moves home with his tail between his legs, only to strike up an unlikely friendship with Marty (Billy Crystal)--a funny, charming, and very alcoholic dermatologist. Despite their differences (and a generation gap), the two men realize that life sometimes knocks you over...but it's easier to get up when you have a little help. An official selection of the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival, Crystal gives an awards-worthy performance in this comedy about unlikely friendships and the power of facing your failures.
