Do you have to be miserable to be funny? Children cry Hey Look At Me, but who chooses that as a profession? Over fifty funny people, like Tom Hanks, Larry David, Jimmy Fallon, Judd Apatow and Amy Schumer, Lewis Black, Jason Reitman, Maria Bamford, Jim Gaffigan, Jim Jefferies, and more share pain-filled insights from a life in pursuit of laughter.

It's the San Francisco debut of the new documentary directed by Kevin Pollak ("The Usual Suspects"), which just had its premiere at Sundance. Followed by a conversation and Q&A with Pollak, Scott Aukerman, Janeane Garafalo and Dana Gould, moderated by Kevin Smith.  $15 All Ages
