Finding time between family vids and big budget flicks, 46 year-old Mrs. Ashton Kutcher has top billing in the new comedy Happy Tears, about a woman trying to raise kids while caring for her insane dad (played hilariously by Rip Torn).

"Happy Tears" premiered on Wednesday at the Berlin Film Festival.
