ZOOLANDER (2001)

Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller) is the number one male model in the world and he is a personification of daftness and vanity.  He is exactly what Mugatu (Will Ferrell) wants for his new mission, which is to brainwash someone to assassinate Malaysia's Prime Minister.  Zoolander is a film that actively flirts with the audience through its intentionally dim-witted comments by Zoolander and his colleagues.  The film brings the audience an absurdity that raises above almost everything that has been accomplished before Zoolander.  In the end, everyone should know the description for daftness and vanity.
