Coconutdaddy’s Movie Pick: Best in Show (2000) 🐕🎥 – Comedy Gold or Just a “Bee”-Level Buzz?

-


Alright, folks, Coconutdaddy is rolling out the red carpet for one of the quirkiest and most hilarious mockumentaries to grace the silver screen: Best in Show (2000). Directed by the comedic genius Christopher Guest, this movie is like watching your neighbor’s overly enthusiastic dog competition dreams spiral into comedic chaos. Does it earn at least a “Bee” rating from Coconutdaddy? Let’s dive in! 🐾

A Paw-some Plot 🐶✨

Best in Show takes us into the world of competitive dog shows, following eccentric owners and their adorable (and surprisingly well-behaved) pooches as they gear up for the prestigious Mayflower Dog Show.

We’ve got:

  • Gerry and Cookie Fleck (Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara), a sweet but hapless couple whose financial struggles don’t stop Cookie’s... ahem... colorful romantic history from making an appearance. 🛠️
  • Harlan Pepper (Christopher Guest), the ventriloquist Southern gentleman who can name every kind of nut. 🥜
  • Meg and Hamilton Swan (Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock), the neurotic yuppies who seem more stressed about their dog than their relationship. 🛋️
  • Sherri Ann and Leslie Ward Cabot (Jennifer Coolidge and Jane Lynch), a hilariously mismatched pair who bring drama and flair to the dog show world. 💎

And let’s not forget Buck Laughlin, played by the scene-stealing Fred Willard, whose commentary is so ridiculous it deserves its own award. 🎙️

Why It’s a Top Dog Comedy 🏆

  1. The Ensemble Cast: With heavyweights like Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, Jennifer Coolidge, and Jane Lynch, every performance is a comedic masterclass.
  2. Improv Magic: Much of the dialogue is improvised, giving it an authentic, laugh-out-loud feel.
  3. Relatable Yet Ridiculous: Whether you’re a dog lover or not, you can’t help but recognize these exaggerated, over-the-top characters in real life.
  4. The Dogs: Let’s be honest, they’re the real stars here. 🐾

Does Coconutdaddy Hand Out a “Bee” Rating? 🐝🍯

Yes! Coconutdaddy buzzes in with at least a solid “Bee” for Best in Show. Why? Because it perfectly balances humor with heart, poking fun at the absurdities of dog show culture without ever feeling mean-spirited. Plus, it’s a tight 1:30:14 runtime—no fluff, all laughs.

The quirky characters, the absurd situations, and the lovable dogs make it a movie worth revisiting, especially if you need a dose of lighthearted comedy. Whether you’re laughing at Fred Willard’s nonsensical commentary or Eugene Levy’s two left feet, there’s something here for everyone.

Final Word from Coconutdaddy 🐕🎥

Best in Show isn’t just a movie; it’s a comedic romp through the weird and wonderful world of dog shows. Whether you’re a fan of mockumentaries, Christopher Guest’s humor, or just want to watch a cast of comedic legends at their best, this is the pick for you.

So grab your popcorn, your favorite furry friend, and settle in for a barking good time. You won’t regret it! 🐾

The Marshal of Madrid (1971): Glenn Ford, Richard Donner, and a Whole Lot of “What Is Even Happening?”

-

Okay, friends, let’s talk about The Marshal of Madrid (1971), a bizarre yet strangely fascinating relic from the annals of TV-to-movie-to-who-knows-what history. Directed by none other than Richard Donner (yes, Superman and Lethal Weapon Richard Donner) and starring the ever-stoic Glenn Ford, this project has layers of weirdness that deserve attention. Grab your popcorn because we’re diving into the Western mystery mess that eventually explained Glenn Ford's presence in Superman . Wait, Madrid? Like Spain? Not quite. The “Madrid” in question is a dusty New Mexico town, but let’s face it—“The Marshal of Madrid” makes it sound like Glenn Ford is chasing fugitives through Spanish cathedrals, which, honestly, would have been cooler. Instead, we get Ford as Sam Cade, the lawman who’s seen it all and probably wishes he hadn’t. How Did This Even Happen? The Marshal of Madrid is essentially a Frankenstein's monster of TV episodes stitched together to masquerade as a feature ...

(Spoiler: This is the only logical part of the movie.) People are getting murdered left and right, and no one seems to question the fact that the killer might just be... oh, I don’t know... THE GUY WHO LOOKS REALLY GUILTY A...
