| A group of wanna-be filmmakers and actors concocts a scheme to make a movie with a major star without having to pay him in this comedy. Bobby Bowfinger ( Steve Martin ) has struggled for years to make it in Hollywood with no real success; he's convinced that he has to make his big break soon or it will be too late. Bobby has a script, and he has a cast, including an ingenue straight off the bus from Ohio ( Heather Graham ), a one-time regional stage star who fondly recalls her brief moment of glory ( Christine Baranski ), and a hunky aspiring matinee idol ( Kohl Sudduth ). He also has a young associate named Dave ( Jamie Kennedy ), who has a low-level job at a movie studio as a gofer — which means that he has keys to every part of the lot and can "borrow" whatever they need. All they need is a star, but without any money, how do they get one? Kit Ramsey ( Eddie Murphy ) is a leading action star, and he is obviously beyond Bowfinger's budget. But Bobby has an idea: what if he tricked Kit into appearing in the film without his knowing it? Steve Martin also wrote the film's screenplay, and former Muppets performer Frank Oz directs. — Mark Deming |
