Meet Jack Corcoran (Bill Murray), motivational speaker to the masses in mini-malls and rented halls across the country. Take Jack’s advice: if life isn’t all that you expected, put aside all those wouldas, couldas and shouldas and Get over it! The reality is that Jack’s dad was a circus clown and just passed on, leaving his son a hefty inheritance: his 8,000 pound trained circus elephant (Tai) named Vera (after Jack’s mother), who comes complete with a trunkful of debts. Jack- in order to pay off his debts, decides to sell Vera(Tai). The problem is getting 8,000 pounds to travel over 2,000 miles, in 5 days. It’s a predicament truly larger than life!
