Film: Bartleby (2001)

A new boss at a public records firm decides to hire a new employee to help handle the work load. In enters Bartleby, the only man who applied for the job. At first he's a model employee but then trouble starts when he refuses to work simply uttering 'I would prefer not to'.

A very funny yet bleak film that captures the true essence of 'quirky'. The tagline will probably go down as one of my favourite things to say.

From the DVD theres a few notable extras, an interview with Crispin Glover and the 11 minutes or so mini commentary. Overall the video quality of the actual film leaves a lot to be desired.
