Amy Schumer crashes Irish wedding

At nine-years-old, Amy Townsend (Amy Schumer) learns a most valuable lesson about human relationships from her embittered father (Colin Quinn).

Amy Schumer and Judd Apatow took their “Trainwreck” all the way to Ireland, and made a special stop for a pair of lucky newlyweds.

“Trainwreck” is the new film from Judd Apatow, the gifted comic director responsible for “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”, “Knocked Up” and “This is 40”. So I was screaming and I was sure I was going to die. “I’m not a stick, but I feel very much like a woman, and I want to show that”. “We just happened to be there for a pint when the married couple came in”. I thought that was really amusing. Well, it helps if you’re a celebrity, and it’s an even bigger plus if you’re willing to do some impromptu entertaining (just ask Bono).

She recalled: “I drove first, so I was like, hang on!” “But whenever I’m met with any sexism I call it out”, she noted.

It followed the fatal shooting of two women at a screening of her film in Louisiana.

She also criticised proposals to slash funding to mental health services.

Both Hader and Apatow also answer the key question of who’s better at improv: John Cena or LeBron James? “I was spreading myself too thin”.

The comedian, who also wrote the screenplay for the movie, was at Dublin’s Savoy Cinema for the Irish premiere on Friday.
