Grab your stools and head on down to the Dairy Queen as we reach for our hometown slice of fame with Christopher Guest’s Waiting for Guffman. Is this the most realistic depiction of local theater dynamics ever committed to film? Can we please make Catherine O’Hara Queen of Improv already? How did Bob Balaban find a symphony-level orchestra for this small town production? And did Parker Posey’s Libby Mae Brown “Just do the cones” so her Victoria Ratliff could “Piper, Noooooo”? The one thing we can all agree on is that this movie is flawless and Corky St Clair is a genius.
