TrialError
2/06: Let's go back to the very first episode of Seinfeld: Kramer (or should I say Kessler?) once told Jerry Seinfeld, "Did you know that I was almost a lawyer? This close."

Well, well, well...who knew eight years later Michael Richards would star in Trial and Error? It's among the funniest courtroom pictures I've seen. Jeff Daniels is "trial" while Michael Richards is "error."

The story is charming. I love the switch of roles: a certified lawyer who goes bonkers and a charlatan who takes the profession seriously. It's nice to see Charlize Theron and Austin Pendleton having fun with this.

All in all, Trial and Error is the best movie Michael Richards has ever done.
