Robertson. Cinematographer, Thomas Ackerman.
Production design, Clayton R. Hartley. Editor, Brent White.

DreamWorks, 2004. PG-13. 130 minutes.
I
decided to see the new Will Ferrell movie
after hearing part of a conversation on
NPR’s “Weekend Edition” (7/10)
between Elvis Mitchell and longtime NPR
commentator Susan Stamberg. Mitchell recent-
ly left The New York Times after four years, and
is now back with public broadcasting and (I
hope) Bravo cable network. Mitchell made
talk, while Stamberg giggled. The delight in
Stamberg’s voice bolstered my flagging enthu-
siasm for summer movies, so I decided what
the heck and went to check out Ferrell.
Set in an all-male television newsroom in
1970s San Diego, Anchorman celebrates and
bemoans the arrival of the station’s first female
anchor, Veronica Corningstone (Christina
Applegate). Ferrell and director Adam McKay’s
inspired wordplay and gaggle of sight gags sur-
round the wisp of a plot involving how Ron
Burgundy (Ferrell) and other news anchors
don’t cotton to a woman reading the news.
Ron, who will read anything on the
teleprompter, pitches his pompous voice to an
audience he assumes to be devout fans and
ends every show with a patronizing, cheesy,
“Stay classy, San Diego.” Lending grandiosi-
ty to his city’s name, which he later claims to
be German for “whale’s vagina,” Ron’s unc-
tuous affectation endears while striking just
the wrong note. Burgundy’s every attempt to
project his shallow personality and overween-
ing vanity is humorously pathetic because
utterly unconscious, but he is widely loved.
Ron’s buddies at the station include a laugh-
able investigative reporter named Brian Fantana
(Paul Rudd), a non-thinking weatherman called
Brick Tamland (Steve Carell), and the bombas-
tic and gender-confused sports flack, Champ
Kind (David Koechner). They are all pitiful sex-

ists, but an appreciative city appears to sprout
oodles of bimbos just for them to dally with.
Veronica, however, is not only gorgeous, but her
blonde ambition is tempered with intelligence,
education and nerve. The perpetual adolescents
are no match for Veronica.
From their polyester suits to their mullet
hairstyles, the anchormen stick together. One of
the funniest sequences has our boys in the
wrong part of town for a rumble with a rival
team of anchors. As if by telepathy, reporters
and news-readers from other television stations
arrive on the scene, armed with hilariously cre-
ative weaponry, in a wicked parody of Gangs of
New York. A formal declaration of rules of the
game is followed by a street fight that quickly
degenerates into an anything-goes altercation.
Ferrell’s comic strength comes from seven
years of “Saturday Night Live” sketches, most
famously his George W. Bush impersonations,
which were enough to make any liberal with a
still-beating heart feel good. Ron’s relationship
with his little yippy dog is wonderful. He inter-
prets his dog’s barks as complex sentences of
deep, spiritual communication. Ron admits to
his loneliness and insecurities only with his
canine pal. He’s hopeless with women, until he
realizes Veronica genuinely cares for him.
If you can sit through two hours and some
minutes of SNL-type routines, this movie is
definitely for you. It’s a perfectly mindless
summer comedy without a mean streak.
Having once known well an ethically chal-
lenged, womanizing radio announcer in love
with his own dulcet tones and falsely inflated
by his fictitious, on-air personality, I give
Ferrell an A+ for observation and imitation.
While I recently read that cameo perform-
ances are passé, apparently no one told Ferrell
or McKay. The film benefits from credited and
uncredited quick performances by the likes of
Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Tim Robbins,
Ben Stiller and Jack Black. Now playing at
Cinemark and Cinema World, Anchorman
gets an overall grade of B, but many moments
are worth remembering. Stay in your seats for
the outtakes during the final credits.
