Watch This Now: Spy

I’d seen some trailers for The Boss this week, and read a little about how great “Spy” was. Apologies for the clip, but do you remember this scene in Bridesmaids? When she’s asking where he keeps his gun? When she pulls out the nano, I lose it: So I thought: “Okay, that same actress is…
