Additional InformationExcitable Montana entertainment report Jiminy Glick (Martin Short) heads out to the Toronto film festival. With his wife Dixie (Jan Hooks) and twin sons Matthew and Modine in tow, Jiminy is poised to realise his celebrity-worshipping dreams by becoming an industry player. After he scores an interview with reclusive, bad-boy actor Ben DiCarlo (Corey Pearson), Jiminy is catapulted to sudden fame and everyone wants in on the action. A famous actress on the decline, Miranda Coolidge (Elizabeth Perkins), seeks Jiminy out but their new friendship appears to have a deadly result. Can gentle journalist Glick have a hidden violent side? Short--who co-wrote this film with Paul Flaherty and Michael Short--first introduced Jiminy Glick via his Comedy Central television program PRIMETIME GLICK. Here, in a feature-length film, Jiminy has ample room to skewer the pervasive culture of celebrity worship while tying in knowledge of movies and Hollywood history. Staying with his family in a creepy hotel far from the glitterati, with director David Lynch (Martin Short again) as a quasi-guide and narrator, Jiminy navigates the treacherous waters of fame with hilarious results.

ReviewsLos Angeles Times - A giddy, gassy piece of lunatic fluff that recounts Jiminy's rise to fame..., New York Times - In the funniest segments, Jiminy is his familiar ebullient self, springing into action as a hysterical bug-eyed interviewer grilling every celebrity who crosses his path..., Entertainment Weekly - In his curdled-butterball way, Jiminy Gilick may be the most acidic showbiz send-up since Andy Kaufman's Tony Clifton
