From Ricky Gervais, the award-winning
creator and star of the original BBC series "The Office" and
HBO's "Extras," comes the new romantic comedy "The Invention
of Lying."
"The Invention of Lying" takes place in an alternate reality
in which lying--even the concept of a lie--does not exist.
Everyone--from politicians to advertisers to the man and
woman on the street--speaks the truth and nothing but the
truth with no thought of the consequences. But when a
down-on-his-luck loser named Mark (Gervais) suddenly
develops the ability to lie, he finds that dishonesty has
its rewards. In a world where every word is assumed to be
the absolute truth, Mark easily lies his way to fame and
fortune. But lies have a way of spreading, and Mark begins
to realize that things are getting a little out of control
when some of his tallest tales are being taken as, well,
gospel. With the entire world now hanging on his every word,
there is only one thing Mark has not been able to lie his
way into: the heart of the woman he loves.
