Dh has been trying to get me to watch a fil for about the last 15 years. But neither of us can remember. I was reminded when he talked about 'pitch perfect' and I thought it had pitch in the title. For some reason I think it's about journalists but could be wrong.
Mners have never failed me!

Hudsucker Proxy?

Mid-nineties; smutty title; journalist featured...

And it's a comedy. I hope this is it!

LizB62A · 25/11/2019 22:55

It's not Blowout is it?
(you might have thought it was called Blowjob... Smile)

PenguinsOnParade · 25/11/2019 22:55

Bold fail on that sorry!

StealthPolarBear · 26/11/2019 06:02

No to all sorry but LizB62A you've got how my brain works.
I'm starting to think I am very wrong about more than one aspect of what I'm remembering

Nothing to do with half of your clues but Airheads is a funny 90s film. Brendan fraser, Adam Sandler and Steve Buscemi. Even if it's not that I would recommend :)

Two weeks notice?

myrtleWilson · 26/11/2019 07:03

Is it The Turin Horse? It's a Hungarian film running at 2hr 30, black and white, exploring the theme of 'heaviness of human existence' and references Nietzsche's horse triggered breaking.
First film that sprang to mind when I read your OP Wink GrinGrin

Now you see, that could be the subtitle of my entire menopausal life.

WiseUpJanetWeiss · 26/11/2019 11:51

Agh. Bold fail. You see what I am dealing with?

StealthPolarBear · 26/11/2019 19:48

myrtleWilson has it. You lot with your Adam Sandler and Steve Buscemi were so wrong.
Lol. Dh keeps reminding me that this is how mil started.

Something about Mary?

Little voice

SnackBadger · 27/11/2019 09:29

Private Parts? It’s about a dj though...

StealthPolarBear · 27/11/2019 11:36

Snack badger I think you may just be a genius. I've asked dh (who will no doubt claim he's never seen it) but it looks very very familiar

OP posts:
Ninkanink · 27/11/2019 11:41

I know the timing nor the brief isn’t quite right, but has anyone mentioned Anchorman yet?

StealthPolarBear · 27/11/2019 11:49

Afraid not. I think snack badger has it

OP posts:
Aridane · 27/11/2019 11:58

My theory is that it was Anchorman/ Pitch Perfect / one of the earlier suggestions but that OP is too embarrassed to say etc. And is now saying yes to Private Parts / Amy film to close the thread!
