- LOOKING FOR COMEDY IN THE MUSLIM WORLD is the hilarious story of what happens when the U.S. Government sends comedian Albert Brooks to India and Pakistan to find out what makes the over 300 million Muslims in the region laugh. Brooks, accompanied by two state department handlers and his trusted assistant, goes on a journey that takes him from a concert stage in New Delhi, to the Taj Mahal, to a secret location in the mountains of Pakistan. Written and directed by Albert Brooks, LOOKING FOR COMEDY IN THE MUSLIM WORLD is a funny and insightful look at some of the issues we are dealing with in a post-9/11 world. The comedy also stars Sheetal Sheth, John Carroll Lynch, Jon Tenney, and Fred Dalton Thompson.

"Like 'The Aristocrats,' Looking succeeds smashingly both as a comedy and as a savvy deconstruction of comedy."
-
"I liked the movie. I smiled a lot. It maintained its tone in the face of bountiful temptations to get easy laughs"
-
"Fans of Brooks and his wry, dry neuroticism will not be disappointed as he whines and whimpers around New Delhi."

"A funny and appropriately skewed comedy."
