Judy's Dead

John and Molly return home to attend a funeral for their mother, Judy, after being estranged from their parents for more than a decade. Confrontations with their domineering father bring up past conflicts, and John and Molly struggle to come to terms with the death of a parent they never really knew. As the audience experiences the past from Judy's perspective, John and Molly learn there is more that connects them to their parents than they ever could have realized.

Directed by Dave Rodkey, Judy's Dead leans on a strong ensemble — Tom Atkins, Eamon McGee, Shaun Cameron Hall — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2014.
