Irwin & Fran tells the love story of a charismatic centenarian comedian and his wife.

"I feel more like I do now than when I first got here", quotes Irwin Corey who, after starting in show business in 1938, claims to be The World's Foremost Authority. The 100 year-old comedian and his chain smoking wife, Fran, are old New York at its most charismatic. With collaboration from Dick Gregory and Susan Sarandon, filmmaker Jordan Stone explores an intimacy rarely caught on camera.
