Episode 683: Bowfinger (1999)

We’re kicking off a month discussing comedy films with a look at Frank Oz’s Bowfinger. Released in 1999, the film was written by and stars Steve Martin as the titular Bowfinger, a struggling filmmaker who, along with his group of misfit artists, makes a movie around the unknowing presence of unstable superstar Kit Ramsey, played by Eddie Murphy.

Kevin Lehane and Rob St. Mary join Mike to keep it together.
