...Anyway, I'm glad the movie exists, because it has a fabulous performance by Mintz-Plasse, a first-time movie actor with a beguiling, almost cunning dorkishness. The comedy comes from Fogell's belief that he is somehow cool, though he must have been told the opposite three times a day since he was in pre-school. Apatow has a habit of promoting his featured losers to starring roles. Rogen was one of Steve Carell's friend-torturers in The 40-Year-Old Virgin before getting Knocked Up, and Hill was a Rogen buddy in that film before Superbad. From...

...living at home, having his mom drive him to auditions about twice a month in Los Angeles, where they would sleep on a cousin's couch. He got a few guest roles on TV shows, but his parents gave him 12 months to make a living as an actor or else he'd have to go to USC, where he had deferred his freshman year. Time was about up when an actor friend told him he'd tried out for a Disney musical, and Efron's agent got him in for the last day of auditions. "The only thing that...
