The Clapper

The Clapper (2018) is an American comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Dito Montiel and starring Ed Helms and Amanda Seyfried. Eddie Krumble has built a quiet life around the least glamorous corner of show business: he gets paid to sit in infomercial audiences and look enthusiastic. Invisible work for invisible pay.

Then a late-night host spots him on television — appearing in a string of commercials, night after night — and puts him on air as a curiosity. Overnight, Eddie is famous for nothing at all. He doesn't want it. He's got a car-wash cashier named Joy (Seyfried) who knows him as just a regular guy, and he'd like to keep it that way. Directed by Dito Montiel, the film sits somewhere between a rom-com and a gentle poke at the machinery of accidental celebrity.

Tracy Morgan supplies the film's sharpest laughs as Eddie's best friend. Low-key and easy to like. Stream The Clapper online on iFILM.
