Tristram Shandy

The humor in Tristram Shandy was unfamiliar to me and apparently other classmates.  The dialogue between the english actors such as in the opening scene seemed like pointless rambling and dry humor.  I was at first confused with the plot and even trying to figure out if there was one at all.  The concept of making a movie about actors making a movie is interesting but at times hard to follow, especially with Steve Coogan playing himself acting as two different characters in the movie.... within a movie.  I actually missed the last day of watching this film because I left for Ireland for two weeks which is also why i missed Long Voyage Home.
