Role Models

Actor Joe Lo Truglio is in the movie Role Models, which I just watched thanks to Netflix. When Joe first appeared in the movie, I performed a well thought-out double take and racked my brain for his replica. Ahhh, then it came to me. Yes, indeed. Ben Esch, the author of Sophomore Undercover, and one of my loyal followers. And how fitting that Joe and Ben, or Ben and Joe (either way sounds like the name of an ice cream shop), resemble each other. The laugh-out-loud humor in Esch's debut novel falls somewhere between this movie and this Saturday Night Live skit, which ironically includes Seann William Scott (with two n's), who is also in Role Models. I'm putting it out there, Joe and Ben must work together. Even if it's cohosting a very serious, very formal, fundraiser of some kind.

  5. That is uncanny!
    How have I not seen this movie yet? It has Paul Rudd and Stifler in it! (and a Ben Esch lookalike!)

  6. Anita - I'll keep my eyes peeled.

    Ben - you're welcome for the free publicity and of course the compliment of being Jo's twin. May I start calling you Jo-Lo?

    Kelly - You must see this movie. You will laugh out loud often. Make sure to watch the deleted scenes and outtakes.
