In this charming romantic comedy, nice guy Fred (The Office’s Paul Lieberstein) winces his way through his days, suffering from chronic back pain that frequently immobilizes him. As a paralegal in his dismissive father’s law firm, Fred is lorded over by an obnoxious younger attorney. His outlook starts to brighten when a new client arrives to start divorce proceedings (Rosemarie DeWitt) and unexpected sparks fly. On her recommendation, Fred seeks out less conventional treatment for his pain and finds himself lying face down on an acupuncturist’s table. To their surprise, Fred’s back begins to sing via the needles inserted along his spine, which is just the start of the unpredictable happenings coming his way. Also with Brian D'Arcy James.
