The Big Picture (1989 Christopher Guest)

Unconfidently directed movie business satire, with Kevin Bacon as novice in Hollywood who loses his head at once, pursues the Wrong Woman, betrays his best friend and trades his cute 1954 Nash Metropolitan for a Porsche. 


With a rather uncontrolled Martin Short, JT Walsh, Emily Longstreth, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Teri Hatcher. It's OK. With that telling credit 'Screenplay by Michael Varhol & Christopher Guest & Michael McKean'. I was kinder to it here.

What's the best bit? There isn't one! Hahahahahahahahaha...... No - it's the terribly made courtroom drama clip shown as one of the award nominees right at the front.

That's probably enough films-about-films for now.
