Tea Leoni & John Dahl: [Leoni:] 'So then, of course, the second I stick the knife in the watermelon, I almost vomited. It was just disgusting.'

The comic voice of Ricky Gervais comes through loud and clear, and Koepp's vision of a classical Hollywood comedy creates a confluence not only of great performers but of considerable wit and heart.
