Synopsis for ajffrecommends.org
An all-star cast gives new meaning to dysfunctional Jewish families, in the wickedly funny <strong>PEEP WORLD</strong>. On the occasion of a 70th birthday party for the patriarch (Ron Rifkin), a nasty Los Angeles real estate mogul, four squabbling siblings plan to reunite. Looming over the proceedings, the youngest of the Meyerwitz clan, Nathan (Ben Schwartz) has just published an unflattering exposé about the family's most intimate and shameful secrets, leading sister Cheri (Sarah Silverman) to sue him for libel. As the beleaguered family gathers around the dinner table, recriminations, revelations and a liberal dose of colorful language ensue. Buoyed by the briskly paced direction of former Farrelly brothers screenwriter Barry Blaustein, the film's talented ensemble includes Michael C. Hall (Showtime's <em>Dexter</em>), Rainn Wilson (<em>The Office</em>), Kate Mara (<em>Iron Man II</em>), and Academy Award nominees Lesley Ann Warren and Taraji P. Henson. The <em>Daily Show</em>'s Lewis Black provides the voiceover narration.
