Happy Endings (VHS, 2005) — Tom Arnold, Lisa Kudrow, Laura Dern
A sharp, character-driven comedy-drama that weaves together the messy, bittersweet lives of several Los Angeles residents.

Meanwhile, Charley and his partner grapple with questions of paternity involving friends Pam (Laura Dern) and Diane, while a rebellious singer disrupts the life of Otis and his conservative father (Tom Arnold). An ensemble portrait of modern relationships where humor and heartbreak collide.
