Set in the world of competitive bird watching, THE BIG YEAR is a goofy comedy about three friendly rivals facing separate (but equally disturbing) life crises who spend a year traveling around the country in an effort to win the title of world’s greatest birder. Based on a book by MARK OBMASICK and directed by DAVID FRANKEL, the first-rate cast includes STEVE MARTIN, JACK BLACK, OWEN WILSON, JIM PARSONS, JOEL McHALE, RASHIDA JONES, DIANNE WIEST and ANJELICA HUSTON.
At the recent press conference to promote the film, the cast demonstrated what seemed to be a genuine camaraderie when fielding questions about how they got along during the shoot. (CLICK ON THE MEDIA BAR FOR AUDIO)
