If there’s an argument to be made that Will Ferrell is the comic voice of the ’00s, the defense should probably go ahead and rest on Anchorman. The first collaboration between Ferrell and writing partner Adam McKay is still their best, casting Ferrell as a scotch-swilling alpha male whose cocky strut through the musk-and-mustache milieu of the ’70s is interrupted an upstart “lady reporter” (Christina Applegate) looking to bust some glass ceilings. more at austin.decider.com

Bill Murray’s portrayal of a mumbling, self-deluded groundskeeper—including golf-announcer impressions and Dalai Lama stories—may be the most original aspect to the quintessential “slobs vs. snobs” ’80s comedy Caddyshack, but when it comes to quotables, it’s very much the Chevy Chase and Rodney Dangerfield show. more at austin.decider.com

During this period, William J. Lenny and William L. Sawyers opened a photo studio in Purcell, Okla., near the reservations, and photographed American Indians in both their traditional dress and the current fashions of the time.read more at austin360.com
