    Sleepwalk with Me tells the story of comedian-turned-playwright-turned-filmmaker Mike Birbiglia in his autobiographically inspired fictional feature debut. Birbiglia wears his incisive wit on hissleeve while portraying a cinematic surrogate. We are thrust into the tale of a burgeoning stand-up comedian struggling with the stress of a stalled career a stale relationship threatening to race out of his control and the wild spurts of severe sleep- walking he is desperate to ignore. Based on the successful one-man show Sleepwalk With Me engages in the kind of passionate and personal storytelling that transfigures intimate anguish into comic art.

    Tiles and tribulations... There is a dedicated community of people for whom Scrabble is more than a domestic nicety - it is an obsession. They devote years of their lives to mental and physical preparation and travel the country - some full-time - competing in cutthroat tournaments. The dictionary is studied with religious devotion each obscure word another weapon for the ultimate battle. For some the game keeps them teetering on the safe side of sanity. For others it has pushed them just over. Some scrape by on the meager winnings alone. In another corner of the Scrabble universe - New York City's Washington Square Park - you'll find a ragtag bunch oblivious to anything besides the games at hand - restaurateurs grizzled veterans the seemingly homeless - all obsessing about words with a Q but no U: QAT QAID QINTAR... This is Not your grandmother's Scrabble. Word Wars delves into both of these worlds focusing on four of the game's highest-ranked players as they advance from heated competition in neighborhood parks and clubs to highly organized regional and national tournaments culminating in the 2002 National Championship in San Diego where the top prize is $25 000 and an appearance on the Today Show. Word Wars is a thoroughly entertaining and hilarious look at the competitive world of Scrabble!

    Mike Birbiglia explains: 'A few years ago my therapist suggested I keep a journal of the awkward moments occurring in my life. Around the same time audiences were demanding more material so I started sending this journal to my mailing list and then telling the stories instage. Somehow this turned into a Comedy Central Special and now it's all contained on this DVD including material from My Secret Public Journal Live CD the Best of Two Drink Mike and an exclusive tour documentary. I have problems. Painful hilarious problems that I hope you will enjoy.
