Il commediante (1995)
Tommy Fawkes esordisce a Las Vegas sotto gli occhi del padre, un celebre attore comico, ma il suo debutto è disastroso. Allora decide di tornare a Blackpool, la città della sua infanzia, per cercare nuovo materiale e nuove ispirazioni. E qui finisce con lo scoprire la poco lusinghiera verità sulle fonti del successo del genitore (oltre che l'insospettata esistenza di un fratellastro).
