A Prairie Home Companion
This is not a sneak preview. This film has already released.
Garrison Keillor takes the audience on a back stage tour of his real-life live public radio variety show of the same name. It is a show within a show where the colorful characters include a singing sister act, a suicide-obsessed daughter, a pregnant stage manager, a singing cowboy duo, a detective character straight out of a dime store novel, and a mysterious woman dressed in a white trench coat. If you are nostalgic for an old-time radio show, you may enjoy this movie and its songs and humor. Meryl Streep is always convincing in every new character she portrays. Lily Tomlin, Lindsay Lohan, Kevin Kline, John C. Reilly, Woody Harrelson, Virginia Madsen, Tommy Lee Jones, and Maya Rudolph round out the cast.
Alien gives it 2 ½ “Red River Valley” stars out of 4.
