Well she's a genius as far as being successful goes!
I liked being the only person I knew that hadn't read the books! (ie, I was trying to feel superior.) But I gave in last year and read them all. Or was it the year before. Whatever. The most recent film was the only one I've seen where I'd read the book first.

I love them! I will reread them a million times before I die.
I'm just saying... he strode quickly, he laughed archly, she swam bravely.

No, I made them up.
She just does that a lot. A little is fine, but not aaall the time.
Them's the rules. 
It's more with the earlier books though, I think.
But I do like her. What the hell was I watching her on the other day?...

I thought his first film was about a man who was the first person to tell a lie?
I hope it's a sitcom too. I love films to bits, but nowadays I get more excited over sitcom.
Quipped Leevil.

No, that's This Side Of The Truth. I've read the first 30 pages, and its funny.

On the subject of Gervais, I recently saw him in that episode of Alias he did and I thought he was very good. He really did ooze menace.
As for this film, about a parallel reality in which nobody tells lies and he's the first man to tell one, it's an intriguing conceit and might work. That said, I thought the ninety minute Extras special dragged a bit, so I'd rather he stayed in the half hour TV format.
