Daniel is a decent young man, married to Jane, still living at his father's home. When his father dies, it is up to him to organize his funeral. On this painful morning, the suitable grave expression on his face, Daniel is ready to welcome his father's friends and relatives. But preserving the dignity inherent in such circumstances will be a hard task. Particularly with an undertaker who botches his work, the return from the USA of his famous but selfish brother, his cousin's fiancé who has accidentally ingested drugs, the presence a moron who takes advantage of the sad event to win back the heart (or rather the body) of a woman who is about to marry another, of a handicapped old uncle who is also the most unbearable pain in the neck. To cap it all, Daniel notices the presence among the mourners of a mysterious dwarf nobody else seems to know... 那段悼词。意想不到的英伦喜剧。三言两语。英国人的家长里短。有点荒诞更有点暖。《葬礼上的死亡》：一场另类的欢乐葬礼。葬礼上的死亡。独自去寻欢。Daniel的致辞。葬礼并不代表禁忌。 丹尼尔（马修·麦克费登 Matthew Macfadyen 饰）是个久不得志的作家，而且一直生活在名作家哥哥罗伯特（拉珀特·格雷夫斯 Rupert Graves 饰）的阴影之下。默默担负赡养父母义务的他这次主办父亲的葬礼，却同样被哥哥喧宾夺主。 本来严肃而又神圣的葬礼更是被堂姐的未婚夫，错食了迷幻药的可怜虫西蒙（艾伦·图代克 Alan Tudyk 饰），搅得一团糟。然而更大的危机在后面，一个神秘的侏儒男子（彼特·丁拉基 Peter Dinklage 饰）现身了，带着毁坏父亲所有声名的证据对丹尼尔进行敲诈。原来丹尼尔的父亲是同性恋，这个秘密眼看就要在他死后被揭开。 在一团混乱中，葬礼断断续续的进行着。戏剧化的悲伤和幽默悄然向我们揭示葬礼的意义——带着挚爱的心情缅怀死者，也让生者将不如意的过去埋葬在葬礼上。
