A Film with Me in It is a 2008 black comedy film starring Dylan Moran, Mark Doherty, and Keith Allen. The film is directed by Ian Fitzgibbon and written by Mark Doherty. The movie follows the story of a struggling actor named Mark (played by Mark Doherty) who lives in a run-down apartment with his girlfriend, Sally (played by Amy Huberman). Mark's brother, David (played by Keith Allen), is a filmmaker who is desperate to finish his latest project but is constantly struggling with funding and production issues.
Mark's life takes a turn for the worse when his neighbor, Pierce (played by Dylan Moran), accidentally falls down the stairs in Mark's apartment building and dies. Mark and David, in a desperate attempt to cover up the accidental death, devise a plan to make it look like Pierce's death was a result of him burglarizing Mark's apartment.
As the film progresses, the situation becomes more and more absurd, as the brothers find themselves in increasingly dire situations. Along the way, they encounter a variety of quirky characters, including a pair of bickering police officers and a drug dealer who helps them dispose of Pierce's body.
One of the standout performances in the film is Dylan Moran as Pierce, the obnoxious yet endearing neighbor who inadvertently puts Mark and David in their predicament. Moran's deadpan delivery and sharp wit make for some of the film's funniest moments.
Mark Doherty, who also wrote the screenplay, does a great job of portraying the hapless and increasingly desperate Mark. His chemistry with Keith Allen, who plays his eccentric but well-meaning brother David, is a highlight of the film.
Overall, A Film with Me in It is a darkly funny and entertaining film that keeps the audience on their toes. It's a testament to the talent of the cast and crew that they were able to take such a bizarre and potentially morbid premise and turn it into such an enjoyable and engaging film.
The film received positive reviews upon its release, with many critics praising the performances and the clever writing. It's a must-see for fans of black comedy or anyone looking for a good laugh.
