Funny Bones
1995, English. Directed by Peter Chelsom.
Comedy. It's in the timing. It's in the material. But mostly, it's in the bones.
Tommy Fawkes wants to be a successful comedian. After his Las Vegas debut is a failure, he returns to Blackpool where his father—also a comedian—started, and where he spent the summers of his childhood.
