Crying With Laughter<\/em>, a bold, low budget, Scottish revenge thriller, has scooped the top prize of Best Film at this year\u2019s Scottish BAFTA awards<\/p>\n

\"tn_IMG_1384web\" The triple BAFTA-nominated debut feature film from writer-director Justin Molotnikov and Glasgow-based Synchronicity Films in co-production with Wellington Films of Nottingham, stars Stephen McCole as stand-up comedian Joey Frisk.<\/p>\n

Joey\u2019s foul\u2013mouthed act has drawn interest from people in high places. Then he tells one little gag about an old school pal, who just happens to be in the audience, and things begin to unravel. Suddenly Frank (Malcolm Shields) is everywhere Joey goes, wanting to talk about the old days…<\/p>\n
