Already a cult classic, this latest release from THINKFilm, Strangers With Candy, is a daring leap backwards. A prequel to the critically acclaimed Comedy Central series of the same name. It is the tale of Jerri Blank (Amy Sedaris), a forty-seven year old ex-con, junky whore who decides to return home after thirty-two years as a runaway. She discovers that her earlier disappearance has caused her father to slip into a coma. In an outrageous attempt to awaken Dad's comatose mind, Jerri resumes her teenage life exactly where she left it - as a high school freshman. Strangers With Candy co-stars Stephen Colbert and Paul Dinello as a bible thumping science teacher and soft minded art teacher (respectively) in tragic love with each other.
