BowFinger

Bowfinger: Friday, August 13, 1999

Bowfinger brings together two of the greatest comedians in Hollywood. Eddie Murphy and Steve Martin come together as movie producer and nerdy movie star. Eddie Murphy  plays duo roles: the first, mega-movie star, Kit Ramsey, which Bobby Bowfinger (Martin) is trying to get to star in his next film, and the other a nerdy looking Murphy that pretends to be Ramsey when Bowfinger realizes that he can't get Ramsey to star in his movie. The buzz on BowFinger: it's a very funny movie with the occasion  flat jokes messing up the mood.
