Tea can do many things, Jane, but it can't bring back the dead.

Death at a Funeral - an English film starring two imports - Alan Tudyk and Peter Dinklage.

As the title suggests, the film depicts a family gathering to attend a funeral. There are two brothers - one a successful novelist living in New York. The other, Daniel, is married and left to care for his own widowed mother. In attendance are a pair of cousins - a brother, Troy, and sister, Martha. He is a chemist and she is newly engaged. The family gathers for the funeral.

Everything falls apart. In order to calm her finance down Martha gives him what she thinks is a Valium. It in fact is hallucinogenic causes her finance, who is not liked by her father, to freak out. Meanwhile there is a rivalry that is simmering between the two brothers. And a bomb is dropped, figuratively, a man attends the funeral and lets it be known that he was the lover of the deceased man. Panic, blackmail, and anger ensue.

Overall an entertaining film. Not as funny as I thought it would be but as I said entertaining. Alan Tudyk is hilarious as he strives to act normal while seeing hallucinations. There were certainly some humorous scenes, it took place during the course of one day (my favorite kind of film), and depicts family at its finest. I would say catch this on tv.
