'cause you can look right through him

The multiplex lobbies are full of big cardboard promotional pieces for this summer's movies. The piece for "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby" lets you have your picture taken with Will Ferrell's title character. It struck me as funny that the face you replace belongs to the great character actor John C. Reilly. The man who isn't there is perhaps best known for playing the subject of the song "Mr. Cellophane" in "Chicago."



Ferrell is scheduled to come to Knoxville for a charity screening of the film, much like last year's "Dukes of Hazzard" screening.
