Those lucky enough to attend the Palm Beach International Film Festival got a sneak peek at what promises to be history’s most hilarious Passover comedy, When Do We Eat? “The story of the ‘world’s fastest Seder; gone horribly awry, it’s about an old school dad (Michael Lerner) who’s as tough on his sons as his father (Jack Klugman) is on him. On this night, however, one of the boys (Ben Feldman) slips Dad a dose of LSD in order ‘to give him a new perspective.'”
We never tire of films about dysfunctional Jewish families who find compassion and understanding through heartfelt dialogue and drug use. Honestly, who hasn’t wanted to dose an uptight relative or two at interminable family gatherings?
When Do We Eat? remains in Hollywood distribution never-land and will probably not be in a theater near you by Passover, but the official site is definitely worth checking out.
Someone call the Weinstein brothers, now that they are not at Miramax and need to start building up thier catalog this would be a perfect fit.
