The film Year One led off this year’s Just for Laughs comedy festival. It officially opens this weekend, and it’s the latest comedy from native Chicagoan Harold Ramis. Studio 312’s Jimmy Carrane caught up with Ramis to talk about the film, and how the smash-hit comedies of today match up with similar movies back when Ramis first got his start.
