The Invention of Lying (2009)In a world where everyone can only tell the truth... ...this guy can lie.
In an alternate reality where lying doesn't exist, Ricky Gervais is a down-on-his-luck loser who suddenly develops the ability to lie.
A comedy set in a world where no one has ever lied, until a writer seizes the opportunity for personal gain.
In an alternate reality, lying -- even the concept of a lie -- does not even exist. Everyone -- from politicians to advertisers to the man and woman on the street -- speaks the truth and nothing but the truth with no thought of the consequences. But when a down-on-his-luck loser named Mark suddenly develops the ability to lie, he finds that dishonesty has its rewards. In a world where every word is assumed to be the absolute truth, Mark easily lies his way to fame and fortune. But lies have a way of spreading, and Mark begins to realize that things are getting a little out of control when some of his tallest tales are being taken as, well, gospel. With the entire world now hanging on his every word, there is only one thing Mark has not been able to lie his way into: the heart of the woman he loves.
