We've covered Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker and their influences, but what about the filmmakers they inspired? Today, it's the first part of a three-part deep dive into the gross-out directing duo who worshipped at the altar of Z-A-Z: Peter and Bobby Farrelly, the Farrelly Brothers! We begin with their first three films: "Dumb & Dumber", "Kingpin", and "There's Something About Mary".
It’s a tale that involves precious bodily fluids ruining a perfectly good hairdo, unexpectedly sweet comedies about Amish bowlers, and the two dumbest guys you’re ever likely to meet.
Join your wonky yet affable host!
