Director Larry Charles, a “Curb Your Enthusiasm?? vet, knows how to work with this style of confrontational comedy (popular on shows now from “Curb” to “The Colbert Report”), milking awkward pauses and misunderstandings for all their comedic gold. The lengths Cohen goes to in the effort to actually offend people are staggering; his Southern dinner party doesn’t end until he orders an African-American hooker sent to the plantation house of his hosts...

This cooperation made it possible to secure seven comedians hailing from Saturday Night Live, the Tonight Show, and Curb Your Enthusiasm??on the performers’ own time, free of charge. That the HCC and ERC were able to approach and convince performers of this caliber is a testament to the level of success that can be achieved with appropriate planning and organizing. The charitable nature of the show...
