The Turn (2012)

Stanley Kovack (Tim Bentinck) is an aging stand up comedian living in London. After a lifetime of easy successes and failed promises, he is left with little more than the memories of his auspicious beginnings. As he stands on the ruins of his personal life and in the last throws of his career, Stanley finds an opportunity for fame and success. He meets Morris (James Phelps), a young stand up comedian at his creative peak and on the verge of comedic triumph.
