What happens?

From the hit-making writer of NOTTING HILL and FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL, THE TALL GUY is a sharply funny story punctuated by the likable comic chemistry of popular stars Jeff Goldblum (JURASSIC PARK) and Emma Thompson (SENSE AND SENSIBILITY). Awkward and out-of-place, Dexter (Goldblum) is a hard-luck American actor struggling to get by on the theatrical stages of London. His dreary personal life, however, gets a much-needed shot in the arm when he meets a pretty nurse (Thompson) during one of his many visits to the local clinic. Together they find love ... but when your life is like Dexter's it's hard to know a good thing when you get it! With a wonderfully memorable performance by Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) and a stellar cast -- don't miss this smartly detailed and charmingly hilarious comedy treat!
