On Sunday night, I saw the latest film from the team, lead by Christopher Guest, that brought you such cinematic gems as Best In Show, Waiting For Guffman and This Is Spinal Tap.

The film, A Mighty Wind (IMDB entry here), follows the same format as the others, namely a mockumentary, most of it ad-libbed by the incredibly talented cast.

You can read the plot at IMDB. In short, it's about a memorial concert for a folk concert promoter, staring three bands that were famous and successful about 30-35 years ago.

This film, IMHO, is even funnier than Waiting For Guffman. Eugene Levy is at his best, as the seemingly lobotomised half of a sixties folk couple

As ever, all the dialogue is improvised by the actors as they film it, but that doesn't stop it from being damn funny. In fact I think the improvisation makes the lines seem all the more realistic.

I'll leave it at that, except to say if you enjoyed the previous films of this ilk, you'll love this one too.

It's currently on limited release in the US (14 cities in selected theatres, probably Landmark Theaters), and will go on general release at some point. No sign of European release dates either.
