Stranger Than Fiction is a really good movie and I think of Dustin Hoffman's "little did he know" rant more than is probably normal for a movie I last saw a decade ago.

Nah, it was about the value of an unremarkable human life versus a work of exceptional art. It was a comedy in the sense that Little Miss Sunshine was a comedy.

I guess Maggie Gyllenhaal was quirky, but everyone in the movie was quirky compared to Will Ferrell. He's supposed to be the blandest IRS agent possible to drive home how little he actually impacts anyone or anything around him and strengthen the argument that were he to die for the sake of art, it would be the sole and greatest contribution of his life.
