A little Friday comedy — The Trip (2011)

Just cannot get these funny bits from 2011’s Steve Coogan/Rob Brydon mockumentary, The Trip, out of my head. This movie is so damn funny in such subtle but uprorious ways, I could watch it once a month. Or maybe more like once a week — it’s that obsession-worthy.

Two Bonds for the price of one as a game of one-upsmanship between world class impressionists? So much win. And let’s not forget dueling Michael Caines.

The Trip is not only hilarious but also at times touchingly melancholy and always feels grounded in the real and complicated relationship between these two guys. Throw in some fancy food, lovely ladies and stunning North England scenery and it makes for a fantastic comedy. And don’t even get me started on the insanely long DVD outtakes for “Gentlemen, to bed!”…
