Additional InformationChristopher Guest brings his unique brand of lunacy to the screen with another mockumentary in the tradition of WAITING FOR GUFFMAN. This one, BEST IN SHOW, is about purebred dog owners feverishly competing for their pets to be named Best in Show at the Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show. Using many of the same actors who starred in WAITING FOR GUFFMAN--a spoof on the society surrounding the stage--Guest peoples BEST IN SHOW with hilarious, frighteningly real characters played by Catherine O' Hara, Eugene Levy, Fred Willard, and indie stalwart Parker Posey, among others. As the cutthroat competition heats up, the film becomes delightfully absurd. The contestants are hilarious. They include Gerry Fleck, a tacky suburbanite, and his overly popular wife, Cookie; Hamilton and Meg Swan, who are unbalanced, yuppie lawyers with terrible teeth; and Scott Donlan and Stefan Vanderhoof, flamboyant longtime companions who fiercely cheer on their canines while keeping their hearts set on the championship title. A reminder that people often bear an uncanny resemblance to their dogs, BEST IN SHOW takes a funny look at an even funnier business.

  • Cringeworthy

    A prime example of how American humour differs considerably from British humour. I forced myself to watch the first 40 minutes then had the overpowering desire to commit hari-kari so I turned it off.

  • Didn't play.

    Unfortunately the DVD did not work in my player!! Contacted the host who asked a few questions but then didn't respond. I guess it was only a couple of pounds wasted.

  • Their comic genius is their proximity to reality.

    Another cracking production from the Spinal Tap/Mighty Wind team. I think in this one they've got the 'over-the-top-ness' spot on. Only in America? Think again!
