If you’re a fan of heart-warming, thoughtful comedies starring quirky, likeable comedians such as “Flight Of The Conchords“ funnyman Jemaine Clement, then sounds like you’re the perfect candidate to enter our new competition to win 1 of 5 double-passes to his new movie, People, Places, Things.
The flick, which comes out on 10th September, stars Clement as Will Henry, a graphic novelist and art teacher who catches his longtime girlfriend and mother of his children, Charlie (Stephanie Allynne), with another man, and then is forced to muddle through life as a single dad.
Speaking with Crave at this year’s Sundance film festival, Clement described the movie as kind of being like an anti-romantic comedy.
“It’s about a breakup for the most part,” he explained. “You don’t see the characters get together in the end and be happy. It’s more about real life than it is ideal. I know that ideal does happen sometimes. Sometimes people do meet-cute and stay together for the rest of their life as is suggested in the movies, but this is more like a real relationship. I’m surprised it’s come up so much but it is in many ways like a romantic comedy, but the subject is not about a romance really.”
It sounds heavy, but hilarity also ensues as the tragedy of being the head of a broken family lands Will in a bunch of delightfully absurd situations.
“There is a romance,” Clement spoiler-ed. “I never do traditional romantic-comedies and I’m also never offered them.”
All you need to do to be in the running to snag two free tickets to see this super-awesome flick on the big screen is fill out the form below before 11.59pm next Wednesday, 16th September. Entry is only open to residents of Australia only.
Winners will be announced shortly after the competition deadline.
