A Mighty Wind
A Mighty Wind is a must-see, the funniest movie I've seen in a long time, probably since Best in Show. Full of big belly laughs (there are scenes that nearly had me in tears) and pieces, it's also brilliant at the detail level. The performances are just fantastic, contagious all around. But if Chatherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy don't get nominated for Academy Awards, something's wrong. They both create characters that are both extremely funny, but at the same time they're real, sympathetic people and are very moving. The backstories of the characters are nearly letter-perfect. I can't recommend this movie too highly.
(Mike, maybe we can catch a matinee this week; I'll be glad to see it again.)
