Marc Forster went for an ambitious trip down a fantastical dramedy avenue when he brought us his 2006 feature, Stranger Than Fiction. Showing Will Ferrell in a more sincere role than he’s typically known for, Stranger Than Fiction brings us into the world of the writer as God; toiling with their creations until somehow one becomes aware of their puppet strings and must find a reason behind them or risk seeing his early demise. This film has a great supporting cast, featuring Maggie Gyllenhaal, Dustin Hoffman, Emma Thompson, and Queen Latifah and was received very well, although not bringing home a massive payday. But does it hold up? Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent debate poetic deaths and mundane existence as we try to determine if this flick should save Harold Crick or if we should kick the writer in the dick.
