News: Tim Allen is Crazy

Funnyman Tim Allen will be plying his trade behind the camera for Crazy On the Outside, his feature film debut. He’ll also be starring as an ex-con who discovers his sister’s family is crazier than prison was, which means he’ll get to bring his personal jailbird experience to the role as well. He served 28 months for cocaine possession back around 1978, likely when he was still known as Tim Dick.

I like knowing that his real name is Tim Dick.

Anyway, it looks like he might be lining up an interesting cast, including Schnook Ray Liotta, Trinity Carrie-Anne Moss, Frasier Kelsey Grammer (no stranger to law trouble himself) and Ed-lover Julie Bowen. It’s supposed to be “adult-themed,” and Allen can be amusing when he’s allowed to get dirty. There’s an outside chance this’ll be a fun movie.
