The Trip | 9/30 | 7:30pm

"The Trip," a fantastic new British comedy from Michael Winterbottom, stars Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon as thinly veiled versions of their acerbic and sardonic selves. If you remember "Tristan Shandy: A Cock and Bull Love Story" from back in 2005, this is essentially a reprisal of the key players. If you're not familiar with that film, it's definitely worth checking out to see what lies ahead for your here. But the trailer will give you a bit of insight - a British road movie about how it's both completely annoying and totally necessary to have friends. "Does it matter where a performer ends and the persona begins, or if the two can be separated?" asks Manhola Dargis in the New York Times, "In 'The Trip' you search for authenticity among the jokes and lulls, but what you get is what you see and hear."
