This weekend, audiences will have an opportunity to see Jemaine Clement like they’ve never seen him before, as an asshole writer.

The writer-director team of Jared and Jerusha Hess have once again brought us an off beat comedy that focuses on the awkward trials of a small town adolescent with Gentlemen Broncos. The film stars Michael Angarano and Jemaine Clement as two writers on the opposite sides of success. Angarano plays Benjamin, a 15 year old who has a passion for science fiction novels, while Clement is Dr. Ronald Chevalier, an acclaimed author who’s career is on the decline.
