Over the last year or so I decided to view the Christopher Guest "mockumentaries."
I hear Christopher doesn't like that term, but it's an appropriate description for the comedies he's made that all share the behind-the-scenes, documentary film aspect.
I saw bits and pieces of some of these movies over the years, but never really appreciated how or why they were funny until I sat down and viewed them each in their entirety. They aren't necessarily laugh-out-loud type films, but rather, very wry and often quirky satire that delivers the occasional guffaw.
Thoughts? Favorites? Etc.?
