On seeing the recent Rob Ford skit on Saturday Night Live, you couldn’t be blamed for wishing that Chris Farley was still around to the play the role of the Toronto mayor.
Even well before recent controversies enveloped the mayor, his outbursts have always seemed Farley-like.
So it was bound to happen that in the wake of scandal upon scandal, someone would put together a spoof trailer for Rob Ford the Movie, staring who else but Chris Farley (thanks to Tristan Gough). And while it might not be quite as funny as Jon Stewart’s last treatment of the mayor, it’s impressive just how easily various clips from Farley’s movies are assembled to tell the Rob Ford story.
If only there was actually a full-length movie on the way…!
