Bob and Peter Farrelly were large contributors to the development of my sense of humor growing up, so the prospect of interviewing them for their latest farce HALL PASS was certainly a treat.

We caught up with the two in Los Angeles and discussed the development of the existing HALL PASS script from Pete Jones and how they brought in their own sensibilities and familiar crude toilet humor into the movie. The incredibly nice brothers also discussed the status of their long awaited re imagination of THE THREE STOOGES, which is finally looking to become a reality soon. Check it out below and make sure to clear your schedules for HALL PASS, opening Friday!
