Punchline

Sally Field stars as Lilah Krytsick, a New Jersey housewife and mother of three who desperately wants to make it big as a comedian. Tom Hanks plays Steven Gold, a stand-up who's been stealing the spotlight at the New York comedy club with his irrepressible, natural comedic talent. Drawn to one another, Steven helps the stumbling Lilah turn her routine from flat to funny, while Lilah helps Steven keep his anguished life together.
