...Stone (angry at Bush), Warren Beatty ("intelligent and precise"), Norman Mailer (at 82, "eyes fixed on eternity"), Samuel Huntington (whose Hispanophobia alarms him) and Woody Allen who, when Lévy gets personal, snaps, "She's not my daughter." Lévy also gets personal with ordinary Americans, who charm him with their politeness, pragmatism and, on occasion, intelligence. He marvels at the patience of passengers queuing at an airport (the French would be murdering each other to get ahead). And when a stone-faced policeman collars Lévy for urinating alongside a busy highway, a hallowed Gallic custom...

He gets dirty right off the bat, riffing on internet pornography and moving from there to topics that include his favorite sexual positions and his love of vaginas. Part of “Super Retardo’s” somewhat limited charm is a function of its live recording; as the audience laughs heartily, Fatel—who performed at last fall’s “Comedians for a Cause” at Harvard—picks a girl out of the crowd whom he will turn to with assorted...

...part, Headey is absolutely adorable as a down-on-her-luck woman in the romance department. But Headey’s breathtaking beauty makes it difficult to believe she can’t find a date. As the befuddled and confused husband, Matthew Goode is, appropriately, good. His charm and affability are readily apparent, as is his heartbreak. Although Perabo dons a respectable British excellent, and her doe eyes are so innocently and cutely expressive, she fails to capture the audience like her co-stars. It would be easy to lump “Imagine” with the current...
