...that that guy would be too much to take for 30 minutes. (Then again, people blow a full hour on Bill O'Reilly.) But Colbert inhabits his pose so lustily--"I've just swallowed 20 condoms full of truth, and I'm smuggling them across the border!"--that his glee is infectious. Like the band Weezer or The O.C.'s Seth Cohen, he is in the grand modern tradition of the swaggering nerd. (The nerd part, by the way, is not unautobiographical.

The film begins with the statement, "Wolf Creek is based on actual events?," and Mclean does nothing to make audiences doubt his tale's veracity. "When we show it in the U.S. and France," he says, with barely disguised glee, "the audiences believe every single thing they've seen is true.
