Waiting For Guffman is one of the best movies ever! I know it’s not really rock related, but it rawks! I guess it could be rock related Christopher Guest aka Nigel Tufnel of Spinal Tap is the genius behind it. His other claim to fame has been Best in Show and A Mighty Wind. All of which are mockumentaries.

Brilliant! Waiting for Guffman is the classic small town celebration musical that shows you the low level artsy performer’s inflated view of reality. That didn’t make much sense, but watch the movie anyway.

Christopher Guest plays Corky a homo, transvestite, broadway geek, tater tot-eatin, my dinner with Andre watchin, Judy Tenuta loving dork. But he has two classic lines “You’re all bastard people” and “I hate you and I hate your ass face.”

Not to mention there are the usual Guest crew like Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, Parker Posey, Fred Willard, to name a few. Eugene Levy is awesome, as usual, in this movie. Gotta love Dr. Pearl. The songs are catchy and the choreography is…amazing.
Waiting For Guffman makes me laugh every single time I watch it. Check it out if you like good comedy…documentary style.

“I’m gonna go home and bite my pillow, that’s what I’m gonna do.”
