Punchline (1988)
Lilah Krytsick is een moeder en huisvrouw die altijd heeft geloofd dat ze een stand-upcomedian zou kunnen zijn. Steven Gold is een ervaren stand-up die op het punt van succes staat. Wanneer de twee elkaar ontmoeten, vormen ze een onwaarschijnlijke vriendschap, en Steven probeert de onervaren Lilah te helpen haar act te ontwikkelen. Ondanks de bezwaren van haar familie en een zeer wankel begin, gaat het beter met Lilah, en al snel concurreert ze met Steven om een felbegeerde televisiespot.
