THE LIFE OF THE PARTY
I smell high jinks!
THE LIFE OF THE PARTY
Logline: How far will a boring guy go to win the heart of his dream girl, who desires a man with a great sense of humor?
Genre: Comedy
Duncan Adams, a boring psychotherapist with the excitement quotient of Nyquil, has met his dream woman, Laura, who looks for sense of humor as her #1 dating criteria. After failing the class "Anyone Can Be Funny", Duncan discovers a new drug, Jovitrol, guaranteed to make you jolly and joking. At first all is well and he wins Laura's heart and funnybone. But when competition enters - namely British comedian, Billy Bedlam, Duncan overdoses in an attempt to be #1 funny man. The downside is his humor becomes insulting and rude, causing him to lose friends, clients and landing him in jail. Even after stopping the Jovitrol, he's still Don Rickles. Will the comic nightmare wreck his new relationship? And is being funny worth it or should we just be happy with who we are?
I would like to submit this screenplay for your consideration and can be contacted as listed below.
Thank you for your time.
