How do you choose between love and the role of a lifetime? The comedy “Good Mourning” follows London Clash as he faces a collision course with both. Colson Baker — better known to fans as musician Machine Gun Kelly — stars as Clash. More than just the lead of ‘Mourning,’ he’s taking the helm to direct the project with Mod Sun. It’s not their first collaboration behind the camera. Baker paired up with Sun to write and direct 2021’s “Downfalls High.” Coming in at over 45 minutes, ‘Downfalls’ is buoyed by the music of Baker’s Machine Gun Kelly persona.
