Seriously. It appears the sporadically brilliant writer-actor-director Albert Brooks has written-directed-starred in a movie to be released later this year called — get this — “Looking for Comedy in the Muslim World,” in which he plays an actor-writer-director named Albert Brooks who has been sent by the U.S. government to figure out what makes Muslims in the Third World laugh. The synopsis alone suggests the movie might be a masterpiece. Can’t wait.
