‘The Trip To Spain’ Trailer: Roger Moore Impression And Good Food – What Else Could You Want?
WhileThe Tripmovies often include a couple of melancholic moments and some pontificating about getting older, the majority of these films are an absolute pleasure to watch. DirectorMichael Winterbottomhas locked in on a simple but effective formula: starsSteve CooganandRob Brydoncruise across various countrysides eating delicious-looking food and incessantly bantering back and forth.
After a three year hiatus, they’re all back for a new set of adventures. IFC Films has unveiled the first full-length trailer forThe Trip to Spain, the third and latest entry in this unlikely franchise, and Coogan and Brydon pay homage to late James Bond actorRoger Moorewith more impressions.
The Trip to Spain trailer
After immensely enjoying both 2010’sThe Tripand 2014’sThe Trip to Italy, I can’t imagine not likingThe Trip to Spainjust as much as the series' previous efforts, if not more. Coogan and Brydon have wonderful chemistry together here and these exaggerated versions of themselves have a fun and funny rivalry that’s a seemingly endless source of humorous conflicts. And those impressions are just fantastic. That crack about the scallop is a nice callback here to the"Come come, Mr. Bond" impression-off fromThe Trip to Italythat cracked me up at the time. I can’t wait to see these guys to toe-to-toe again.
Even though I’m a fan of these films, I’m somehow just learning that eachThe Tripmovie was edited down from a full season of a television show (also directed by Winterbottom) to fit a standard movie run time. Armed with that knowledge, I’m now planning to scour all of my cable provider’s BBC networks in the hopes of tracking down the full TV seasons to watch before this new movie comes out.
