How's that for a subject change..
Just heard on news this morning (and confirmed by googling) that Robert Altman is producing a movie written by my beloved home-town boy Garrison Keiller. Evidently it's a [satirical? my word] look at "at what goes on backstage during the last broadcast of America's most celebrated radio show [A Prairie Home Companion], where singing cowboys Dusty and Lefty, a country music siren (played by Meryl Streep), and a host of others hold court," according to www.imdb.com. Who better to poke fun behind-the-scenes of contemporary Americana without any sentimentality than Robert Altman.
Not wild about the other cast of characters (I'm not a Harrelson fan, and I take or leave Lindsay Lohan), but Streep, Lily Tomlin and Robin Williams should be a hoot.
Sort of a Hollywood makes fun of Scandinavians with some East Coast wit tossed in for bite?!?
Feel free to register your divergent opinions. I'm sure you're thinking them already. Ha! I love blogs!
