LOS ANGELES, May 27 (UPI) -- Embargo lifts Wednesday May 27, noon ET

It's weird to be nostalgic for mediocre comedies. The Breadwinner, in theaters Friday, is the sort of unmemorable comedy vehicle that flourished in the '80s and '90s but were good enough for a night out at the movies.

Nate Bargatze plays Nate Wilcox, in case there was any ambiguity that The Breadwinner is based on his stand-up comedy. Nate is the top salesman at the Nashville, Tenn. Toyota dealer.

His wife, Katie (Mandy Moore), is the stay-at-home mom, which his narration acknowledges is more traditional than many modern marriages. Katie gets a chance to develop her organizational system as a startup business.
