He's laughing
By LOUIS B. HOBSON
Harland Williams, who plays Molly Shannon's secret admirer in the comedy Superstar, is currently filming a Pulp Fiction-style parody called The Whole Nine Yards.

"It's a really dark comedy that tweaks the gangster genre even more than Pulp Fiction did," says Williams.

"Bruce Willis plays a retired hit man who is forced to defend himself. Matthew Perry and I also play hit men, but it's not always clear who's hunting who.

"That's the fun of the movie."

Williams can't believe his good fortune.

"When I decided to become an actor, my goal was getting a feature spot in a gum commercial.

"Now I'm making jokes with Bruce Willis, one of the biggest movie stars in the world.

"It doesn't get any better."
