New Release: It's Kind of a Funny Story Due February 8 Sometimes what's in your head isn't as crazy as you think ... that's certainly true for Craig (Keir Gilchrist). Sixteen-year-old Craig , stressed out from the demands of being a teenager, checks himself into a mental health clinic. But the youth ward is temporarily closed, so he finds himself stuck in the adult ward. One of the patients, Bobby (Zach Galifianakis), soon becomes both Craig's mentor and protege. Craig is also quickly drawn to another 16-year-old displaced to the adult ward, the sensitive Noelle (Emma Roberts), who just might make him forget his longtime unrequited crush Nia (Zoe Kravitz). With a minimum five days' stay imposed on him by the adult ward's staff psychiatrist, Craig is sustained by friendships on both the inside and the outside as he learns more about life, love, and the pressures of growing up.
