Christopher Guest
The "Eternal Sunshine of Charlie Kaufman's Mind" Rave (Featuring My List of The Top 5 Comedies of All Time)
in
There are lots of good, even great, films out there, even a few amazing ones, but what's especially exciting, at least for a film buff like myself, is when you come across a completely original piece of filmmaking. Which is exactly what "Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind" is - completely original AND totally amazing. I just watched it again, for the first time in four years, and, like so many other great films, it blew me away even more on second viewing.

The Wait Is Over: "For Your Consideration" is finally here
For all you lovers of great comedy, the wait is almost over. Only 4 more days to go until the release (on November 17th) of the new Christopher Guest film, "For Your Consideration". And it sounds like it's going to be great, just like Guest and co-writer Eugene Levy's last three films: "Waiting for Guffman", "Best in Show" and "A Mighty Wind". If it's even half as funny as "Best In Show" then it stands to be one of the funniest films of the year.
