Ferrell's almost completed his transformation
I'm not surprised that Will Ferrell has been moving toward doing dramatic roles; however, I am impressed by the speed at which he's doing it. Thinking back to how other comedians have had to really knock up against the barrier between comedy and drama I guess it's ineveitable that someone could make the transition in just a few years. It was a long, decades long movement for Bill Murray and Robin Williams. Shorter for Jim Carrey. Jamie Fox did it fairly quickly. After seeing even Adam Sandler (Punch Drunk Love is, by far, one of his best films) do a good job I'm not surprised that Hollywood would be willing to give comedians a better shot at drama.
