This month’s movie: “For Your Consideration”
This film was directed by Christopher Guest and co-written by Guest and Eugene Levy, both of whom also star in the film. The film’s title is a phrase used in trade advertisements to promote films for honors such as the Academy Awards. The plot revolves around a group of three actors (played by Catherine O’Hara, Parker Posey, and Harry Shearer) who learn that their performances in the fictional film they have not even completed yet, Home for Purim, a drama set in the mid-1940s American South, are supposedly generating a great deal of award-season buzz.
Shangri-La Entertainment, 2006, 86 min., PG-13
