‘A Little Help’: You Think Job Had Problems? Pity Poor Jenna Fischer

“Office” star shines in a dramedy that marks an impressive directorial debut for Michael Weithorn

Will the recent widow hook up with her brother-in-law? Or will she merely continue smoking pot in the back yard? And what about the frivolous lawsuit against the doctor who mistook her husband’s heart attack for arrhythmia? Will anyone see through that lie about her husband saving three people before dying on 9/11? And why won’t that damn dog next door stop barking?

These and other questions are answered in “A Little Help,” Michael Weithorn’s smart and funny new dramedy.

"The Office's" Jenna Fischer stars as Laura Pehlke, a Long Island dental hygienist whom we meet in the aftermath of the Sept.
