synopsis
He's the biggest on-air celebrity interviewer in the world. Oprah, Regis, Dave and Jay literally stand in his shadow. He's outlasted Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas and Johnny Carson--no one has become more legendary than Jiminy Glick. Way back when, Jiminy Glick began his illustrious career as the entertainment critic for a television station in Butte, Montana. When he arrives with wife Dixie and twin boys Matthew and Modine in tow to cover the Toronto International Film Festival for the first time, he's intent on finding fame among the rich, famous and fabulous. To his dismay, no one pays him an ounce of attention because no one knows who he is. All that changes as he suddenly starts a meteoric rise from being a humble reporter to becoming the most celebrated and renowned star interviewer.

The rest is Jiminy, his wife, Dixie (Jan Hooks), and their sons, Matthew and Modine, visiting the Toronto Film Festival so Jiminy can ask rude questions to stars such as Steve… Continued
