Shakes the Clown

(1991)Directed by Bobcat Goldthwait87 min · RComedy, Crime, Drama
“Loved by children. Desired by women. Adored by bartenders everywhere.”

Shakes the Clown (Bobcat Goldthwait) works kids' birthday parties and spends nearly every other hour drunk. When his rival Binky (Tom Kenny) lands a spot on a local kiddie show, Shakes sinks lower, and his boss warns him that one more slip means he's out of work. Goldthwait, who also wrote it, plays the whole thing in a flat, shrugging voice, so the clown world feels like a bar that never closes.
