MORE ABOUT 'STRANGER THAN FICTION'
Little did he know that this simple seemingly innocuous act would result in his imminent death. Will Ferrell delivers a career-defining dramatic performance as Harold Crick, an obsessive IRS auditor who begins hearing a mysterious narrator's voice describing his life in real time. When the voice mentions his impending death, Harold seeks help from literature professor Jules Hilbert (Dustin Hoffman) to determine if he's in a comedy or tragedy. Along the way, he finds unexpected love with baker Ana Pascal (Maggie Gyllenhaal), whom he's auditing, while the reclusive author Karen Eiffel (Emma Thompson) struggles to complete her novel and kill off her main character - Harold himself.
Directed by Marc Forster and written by Zach Helm, starring Will Ferrell, Emma Thompson, Dustin Hoffman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Queen Latifah, 'Stranger Than Fiction' is a brilliantly crafted meta-comedy that explores fate, free will, and the power of storytelling. Join the existential fun and test your knowledge of literary devices, Will Ferrell's filmography, and mind-bending narratives with our incredibly thought-provoking trivia game!
