Best in Show
Directed by Christopher Guest
2000
★ 5.7 editorial score
The mockumentary found its permanent subject here, the American hobbyist: five sets of owners take their dogs to a national championship, and each of them reveals far more than intended.
“Brilliantly observed, acerbically funny, "Best in Show" is even more impressive for the fact that it is largely improvised, a fact that should remind everyone that the whole cast deserve equal acclaim for the non-stop laughs. Managing to take the mickey out of a pretty absurd pastime, it also maintains an affection for its subjects other similarly-themed movies fail to do.”
