Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover) plays opposite young stars Keir Gilchrist (United States of Tara) and Emma Roberts (Valentine's Day) in the Focus Features film It's Kind of a Funny Story, a smart and upbeat comedy about life, love, and the pressures of growing up. Craig (Gilchrist) is a stressed-out teenager who checks himself into a mental health clinic for a little time out. What he finds instead is an unlikely mentor in Bobby (Galifianakis), a potential new romance with Noelle (Roberts), and the opportunity to begin anew.
