Hapless satirical songwriter Henry Phillips is lured to LA when a veteran TV producer decides to make a show about the life of a loser. As reality sets in, he must decide whether his legacy will be to tell jokes for a living or become the butt of them.
Punching Henry features a fantastic supporting cast of comedians... and Phillips' low-key yet undeniable charisma keeps it from landing squarely in the Sad Bastard genre it otherwise circles, as does the fact that it's genuinely funny.
