Colm Meaney chats THE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE

Two estranged branches of a family – one in New York, the other in Ireland – attempt to mend a generations-old feud in THE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE, starring Colm Meaney and Paul Reiser. The film centers on Irish undertaker Ciáran (Meaney), whose dying father Fergus (Des Keogh) has one last wish: to reconcile with their long-lost American relatives. When the distant cousins finally meet, their good intentions quickly unravel into comedy. Co-written by Reiser, the film delivers broad humor with an endearing charm.
In a recent Newstalk podcast, the stars of the film chat to Anton Savage about how the movie came to be and the joy of shooting in Ireland.
