After an unfinished hypnosis session, office clerk Peter Gibbons has lost all interest in his job. But strangely enough, it helps him advance in his career. And then Peter decides to steal some of the company’s money, but things don’t go according to plan.
This film was made by the author of “King of the Mountain” and “Silicon Valley” Mike Judge, and, of course, the picture came out very witty. On the role of the girlfriend of the protagonist – waitress Joanna – he invited Jennifer Aniston, then shining in “Friends”.
To the image of a simple girl she was not accustomed to: in the series, her heroine also worked as a waitress. So the actress looked quite natural in this role.
