The trailer for Ricky Gervais’ new movie, “The Invention Of Lying,” about a world in which everyone tells the truth. Remember the first time you got high with the funniest person you know? This is like that if your friend had a Peabody Award and Rob Lowe.
When reclusive, aging geniuses reference their most over-referenced work (especially one as silly as Caddyshack), it’s like a rare peacock showing off it’s plumage for a split-second. Enjoy Mr. Bill Murray doing a Carl Spackler impression during a recent, brief local news interview.
