It's about an indie movie called "Home for Purim," a somewhat inane drama about a dysfunctional Jewish family living in the South during World War II. But while the film is still in production, a reporter for an online entertainment site drops the word -- based on a brief visit to the set -- that one of the ensemble cast performers may be an Oscar contender. It goes on to chronicle how the Oscar buzz affects the director, additional cast members, writers, an agent, a publicist, and the hosts from an Hollywood entertainment-type television program.
DVD, region 1, widescreen presentation; Dolby Digital.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Entertaining submitted by markwells on June 19, 2016, 11:46am This satire is from the same crew that did Best in Show. If you don't like satire you may not care for it. Personally, I believe any movie in which Fred Willard appears is worth a look. Grade B.
