The Comedian

Directed by Tom Shkolnik

Explores gender and sexuality through the life of a struggling stand-up comedian in London.
The Comedian is a quiet British drama about a stand-up comic drifting between relationships and uncertain ambitions. Tom Shkolnik’s naturalistic style can feel loose, but the understated performances and London setting give the film an appealing sense of lived-in realism.
