Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Adam McKay
Starring: Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Gary Cole, Sacha Baron Cohen
Visible crew/equipment: When Reese Bobby is getting thrown out of Ricky's school, if you look in the window to the right of the screen, you can see crew members backing up with the camera.
Ricky Bobby: I've sent in my application to the Real World. So I'm hoping to hear back from that. I'm putting A LOT of my eggs into that basket, the MTV basket. I'm also thinking about getting a gun, and dealing crack. Being a crack dealer. Not like a mean crack dealer, but like... Like a nice one. Kinda friendly like, "hey, what's up guys? Want some crack?" I'm just waiting on those two things to flesh themselves out.
Trivia: Jane Lynch plays Lucy Bobby, the mother of Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell). In real life, Lynch is only seven years older than Ferrell.
