◎简　　介　
Based on the novel "The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentlemen," written by Laurence Sterne, this flips back and forth between the 18th Century and the hapless efforts of the 21st Century filmakers, "Tristram Shandy" is the making of a movie adapted from the notoriously unfilmable English literature masterpiece. The story begins with Tristram Shandy (Steve Coogan) narrating his life story as he sees it. Crammed with literary jokes and dark humor, Shandy's warped childhood tales are constantly interrupted by his family and household, inadvertently revealing far more about himself than any conventional autobiography. At the dramatic moment of Tristram's birth, the 1st Assistant Director calls cut, marking the end of a filming day on the set of Tristram Shandy. We then see Steve Coogan, the other actors and crew through the course of a chaotic evening on set. Steve Coogan's wife arrives with their six month old baby, a journalist is chasing him about a scandalous story, his agent has arrived with a load of Hollywood scripts and the film financiers are threatening to pull the plug. A clever, post-modern take on the construction of a film, from an intricate hilariously complex autobiographical novel.
A cock and bull story，公鸡和公牛的故事？非也，非也。它的意思是“荒诞的故事、无稽之谈、无伤大雅的谎言”。
1620年左右，这个短语第一次出现。据说当时英国有一家公路旅馆，店名就叫做Cock and Bull，疲倦的旅行者在这儿过夜休息，他们经常聚在一起侃大山，讲他们所经历的一些奇闻逸事。后来，这些故事就被称之为cock and bull tales。
有时候也可以用a cock to donkey story来表示“荒诞的故事、无稽之谈”。
