“I want a talkshow with me as the host”. To be fair, I’d watch Kristen Wiig clip her toenails, so that doesn’t seem like the most ridiculous premise.

What happens when a lonely ‘loser’ with borderline personality disorder who is obsessed with Oprah wins $86 million dollars? This, I guess.

This year’s newest movie inspired by disfunction and a healthy handful of quirk and good humour is brough to you by producers Will Ferrel and Adam McKay (otherwise known as the duo that brought you Anchorman 2 and Step Brothers). It also stars the unparalleled comedic talent of Kristen Wiig with a very, VERY decent supporting cast of Joan Cusak, Tim Robbins, Linda Cardellini, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Alan Tudyk and James Marsden (are you giggling with glee yet?).

Preview a clip from the film here, in which Wiig discusses the concept of her show with some TV producers here. This is just about as straight as audiences have ever seen Wiig. We’re not expecting the bung-eyed enthusiasm of SNL’s Target Lady to rear it’s head in Welcome To Me. In fact it looks so off-beat that we anticipate there might be some nervous laughter coming to a cinema near you.

Welcome to me opens in the USA this week though no Australian release date has been set. I know, right?
