The Invention of Lying (2009)
Comedy Fantasy Romance
October 2, 2009- In theaters
The movie takes place in a parallel universe where falsehood is nonexistent, and individuals openly express their thoughts and emotions. Mark Bellison, a screenwriter, operates in an industry that is restricted to factual accounts due to the absence of fiction. During an evening, he goes on a date with the stunning and affluent Anna McDoogles. Anna candidly admits to Mark that she is not drawn to him due to his appearance and financial struggles, but is accompanying him as a favor to his closest friend, Greg Kleinschmidt.
