Summary:
In an alternate reality, lying — even the concept of a lie — does not even exist. Everyone — from politicians to advertisers to the man and woman on the street — speaks the truth and nothing but the truth with no thought of the consequences. But when a down-on-his-luck loser named Mark suddenly develops the ability to lie, he finds that dishonesty has its rewards. In a world where every word is assumed to be the absolute truth, Mark easily lies his way to fame and fortune. But lies have a way of spreading, and Mark begins to realize that things are getting a little out of control when some of his tallest tales are being taken as, well, gospel. With the entire world now hanging on his every word, there is only one thing Mark has not been able to lie his way into: the heart of the woman he loves.

The sixth season of NBC’s beloved comedy The Office might be more accurately titled “Office Romance,” as love will be in the air for the employees of Dunder Mifflin despite an economic downturn – including the much-anticipated wedding of expectant parents Jim and Pam.
Last season ended with the engaged Jim (John Krasinski) and Pam (Jenna Fischer) appearing to discover that they were pregnant, and the couple will indeed have a baby – and accelerated nuptials – on the way, as TV Guide Magazine first reported. “The wedding will be the fourth and fifth episode – It’ll be an hour long,” confirms co-executive producer Paul Lieberstein, who also plays HR director Toby Flenderson.
“We will be seeing the wedding, we’ll meet their family,” Lieberstein said, though otherwise their relationship will continue to be primarily viewed at the couple’s workplace. “We’re going to try to see it in the office, how that affects people who work together.
“I loved when they said we were going to have a baby before got married, that we would find out that we got pregnant before we got married,” said Krasinski. “I think that’s real and it’s gutsy.”
“It was fun to do something out of order with them,” added Lieberstein. “They’re obviously a good couple, but just to throw real, little, very simple obstacles in front of them and then they’re the kind of people who deal with small things in an amusing way. Jim has a good sense of humor and Pam can get worked up over things. So we thought that it was an interesting way to do it.”
“Trying on the wedding dresses for Pam was emotional,” admitted Fischer, who’d just come from a fitting session and is engaged in real life. “It really felt significant. It feels like she’s a person I’ve been routing for, for so long, and to see her finally getting her dream come true is neat.”
Fischer thinks there’s a reason the Jim/Pam romance has thrived over the years when other TV romances fizzles. “When the relationship was still an unrequited love relationship I would get a lot of fan mail from people who were also pining away for someone else in their office,” she said. “Now I’m getting a bunch of mail saying ‘I can’t wait to see you guys have a baby because we’re expecting!” And so I feel we’re kind of growing up with our fans, and we’re going though those same life stages as the people who’ve been watching us from the beginning.”

Summary:
When a local Texas policeman, Steve Russell, turns to cons and fraud to allow him to change his lifestyle (in more ways than one), his subsequent stay in the state penitentiary results in his meeting the love of his life, a sensitive fellow inmate named Phillip Morris. What ensues can only be described as a relentless quest as Russell attempts escape after escape and executes con after con, all in the name of love. This is the world of the preposterous: it plays like a farce but is vastly entertaining because it turns all that we take for granted about life on its head. As a primer on the irresistible power of a man who is either insane or in love (is there a difference?), this film surely serves to remind us of the resilience of the human spirit. Based on a book by Steve McVicker.
