THE INVENTION OF LYING: On General Release From 2nd October 2009

Some call him a smug, one-trick-pony who only plays himself.

Even if this is true, it really doesn’t seem to matter because regardless, Ricky Gervais is going from strength to strength.

Now he’s directing movies and doing it quite well.

In a world where humans haven’t developed the ability to lie, Mark Bellison tells the world’s first and like any good liar (or Pringle), once you pop you just can’t stop.

For all the ‘characterisation’ involved, Mark pretty much is Ricky, a self-described chubby little loser, who works at a film production company as a writer. But since there are no lies there’s no fiction and so the only films around involve a guy sitting in a chair, reading out what happened in a particular century. Do It!
