I Smile Back stars Sarah Silverman as Laney Brooks, who does bad things. Married with kids, she takes the drugs she wants, sleeps with the men she wants, disappears when she wants. Now, with the destruction of her family looming, and temptation everywhere, Laney makes one last desperate attempt at redemption.
Also starring Josh Charles, Thomas Sadoski and Mia Barron, this trailer is full of “Ooh, Sarah Silverman makes the dramatic performance of her life” etc. Well, she better had because I find her comedy particularly unfunny.
This Hollywood depiction of mental illness and depression is released in the US on October 23rd but doesn’t yet have a UK date. Don’t hold your breath. This has “straight to DVD” written all over it.
