Hilarious Film Starring Many Actors Who Appeared

¶ … hilarious film starring many actors who appeared in Christopher Guest's earlier films 'This is Spinal Tap' and Waiting for Guffman. The movie focuses on the inherent silliness of everyday life. With improvisation and excellent camera work, Guest manages to capture the life of an ordinary man on the camera. The basic premise is that if you catch a group of people and observe their lives closely, you will find numerous instances of inanity. The best thing about the show is its spontaneity. It revolves around a Dog Show and people's reaction to the same. Even the dogs are used as characters and most of their actions are not choreographed, creating endless potential for hilarity and silliness. There are five couples: Gerry and Cookie Fleck with their Norwich Terrier Winky, Harlan Pepper with his Bloodhound Hubert, Hamilton and Meg with their Weimeraner, Beatrice, Sherri Ann Ward Cabot and handler Christy Cummings with champion poodle Rhapsody in White and last couple is Scott and Stefan with their Shih Tzu, Miss Agnes. The couples are as diverse as they can come and it is this diversity that gives Guest opportunities to create hilarious moments. Many potentially funny things have been included such as having two Starbucks on the same street, a man who literally has two left feet and numerous other similarly silly instances that force you to laugh out loud with careless abandon. What adds to the comic element of the movie is absolutely clueless commentator Buck Laughlin. Laughlin has no idea as to how a dog show is conducted, and what follows then is amazingly ingenuity that has the viewers glued to the screen in anticipation of what might come next. Mayflower Dog Show is realistically captured and since the movie is only one and a half hour long, it ends before the viewers could possibly get bored.
