“I’m pretty sure there’s a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking….
And I plan on finding out what that is.”
Director Ben Stiller wrote, directed, and starred as the ultimate male model phenom Derek Zoolander in 2001’s ZOOLANDER, perfect fluffy fun for a Friday Late Night Movie on March 25. Propelled to the top of the fashion world by a photogenic gaze he calls “Blue Steel,” dimwitted male model Derek Zoolander (Stiller) thinks he’s got a fourth consecutive win as Male Model of the Year in the bag. But, when his rival, Hansel (Owen Wilson), unexpectedly takes the crown, Derek is crushed. He becomes easy prey for fashion designer Jacobim Mugatu (Will Ferrell), who signs Derek to star in his “Derelicte” fashion show, then brainwashes him to kill Malaysia’s prime minister. With Christine Taylor, Jerry Stiller, Milla Jovovovovovovich.
“Serves as glossy, throwaway fun, and it features more cameos than you can shake a mascara wand at.” (Salon.com)
