johncomicFinally getting to watch For Your Consideration.
I dearly love Christopher Guest’s mockumentary series -- Waiting for Guffman, A Mighty Wind, Best in Show, and perhaps most famously, This Is Spinal Tap -- and FYC did not disappoint in any regard. Like the other films, this one made me laugh out loud and also made me wonder at how deeply it could touch me. I find so much affection in these films -- even when people's foibles are being mocked and skewered, even when the characters aren't lovable, somehow they all seem loved, anyway. So much love for the simple fact of being human -- amazing.
