Amazon.com: Christopher Guest, the man behind Waiting for Guffman, turns his comic eye on another little world that takes itself a bit too seriously: the world of competitive dog shows. Best in Show follows a clutch of dog owners as they prepare and preen their dogs to win a national competition. They include the yuppie pair (Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock) who fear they've traumatized their Weimaraner by having sex in front of him; a suburban husband and wife (Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara) with a terrier and a long history of previous lovers on the wife's part; the Southern owner of a bloodhound (Guest himself) with aspirations as a ventriloquist; and many more. Following the same "mockumentary" format of Spinal Tap and Guffman, Best in Show takes in some of the dog show officials, the manager of a nearby hotel that allows dogs to stay there, and the commentators of the competition (a particularly knockout comic turn by Fred Willard as an oafish announcer). The movie manages to paint an affectionate portrait of its quirky characters without ever losing sight of the ridiculousness of their obsessive world. Almost all of the scenes were created through improvisation. While lacking the overall focus of a written script, Best in Show captures hilarious and absurd aspects of human behavior that could never be written down. The movie's success is a testament to both the talent of the actors and Guest's discerning eye. --Bret Fetzer

BEST IN SHOW(2000)---Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, Fred Willard. Parker Posey, Jennifer Coolidge, Jane Lynch, John Michael Higgins, Michael Hitchcock
A very funny(IMO) satire from the same gang that brought you THIS IS SPINAL TAP, WAITING FOR GUFFMAN, A MIGHTY WIND, etc. The targets here are "big-time" dog shows and the people who participate in them. Everybody plays it absolutely straight, which only adds to the "humor quotient". The film focuses on: a small ... Read More

As a Christopher Guest fan, I have enjoyed all his films, from "Waiting for Guffman" to "For Your Consideration." But as an animal lover as well--and frequent observer of the Westminster Dog Show at Madison Square Garden each year--I am a particular admirer of "Best in Show"--which I have seen several times. It captures the genuine love, devotion, talent--and eccentricities, obsessivesness, and laugh-out-loud humor of the world of dog shows, the pet owners, and the TV commentators. Best of all--Guest ...

This movie was absolutely hilarious. The characters were all completely nuts and very funny. The plot was simple yet easy to get into. And it was well directed and acted. People who like mocumentaries have got to see this film.
