Flipping back and forth between the 18th Century and the hapless efforts of 21st Century film makes, A Cock and Bull story is an unorthodox adaptation of the English literary masterpiece, The life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, written by Laurence Sterne.
The story begins with Tristram Shandy (Steve Coogan) narrating his life story as he sees it. Crammed with literary jokes and dark humour, Shandy's warped childhood tales are constantly interrupted by his family and household, inadvertently revealing far more about himself than any conventional autobiography.
A clever, post-modern take on the construction of a film, from an intricate, hilariously complex autobiographical novel.
