Punching the Clown (DVD)

What he takes from life, he gives back through his art and so far he has taken nothing but crap. When a talented but hapless traveling songwriter (Henry Phillips) moves to LA to shake things up, his luck changes overnight. Thanks less to his inept manager than to a wild case of mistaken identity; he falls backwards into a string of packed gigs, a record deal and even the promise of love. But he who lives by the whimsy of show business dies by it; an innocent miscommunication over a bagel makes him the victim of a vicious rumour in the tabloids. Luckily, somewhere between rock bottom and the middle of nowhere, lies the perfect terrain for Henrys dark and hilarious songs.
