I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Billy Chrystal was subtle, enchanting and carried his role off with aplomb. His eyes still had a sparkle but there was a sadness in them also that cemented his part in the movie perfectly. His talent has not dimmed over the years, I'm glad to say! It was a joy watching him take on a serious role so convincingly. His part was very well-written. Ben Schwartz was not very familiar to me but I will say right off the bat that he was well-cast. He had just the right amount of hang-dog demeanor to carry off his role as the cynical not-quite-defeated unsuccessful comedian. His performance was thoughtful and believable. I recommend this movie!!
