Great for some, but not for everyone...

I really liked the movie, but my wife found it slow and boring. It has a laid-back pace, with subtle humor (definitely not the currently popular in-your-face or vulgar humor, nor was it slap-stick). Think of it more like Andy of Mayberry humor, or a very toned down Hee Haw. I'm not a listener of the PBS A Prairie Home Companion, but I believe this is pretty much a video version of that style humor, especially since Garrison Keillor is the star. Almost the entire movie was set inside a theater building, onstage and backstage. There really was not much of a plot, nor much action, but as I said, I did like it as a feel-good movie. I liked the music in the movie, too, again in country Hee Haw style.Read full review

Just what the doctor ordered.

Shipping fast. Item exactly as described. As someone who has seen a live Prairie Home Companion performance at the Fitzgerald Theatre in St. Paul, Minnesota, this certainly brings back memories. Garrison Keillor has a singular wit that guarantees laughter without resorting to more profane humor. Worth watching over and over.Read full review

Well Done and Great Fun!

I bought this movie to compare to the live radio performances and was absolutely delighted. Everyone did an excellent job conveying the flavor of the radio shows and I look forward to enjoying it often.Read full review

Fun throughout !!!

I had seen PHC on it's theatrical release and never forgot how entertaining it was... Now that it's part of my library I suspect it will get annual play... The cast can't be beaten and I feel each gave their all...Read full review

Unique story and for the family

The concept is different (ALA a radio show).
Humorous, entertaining, great for Home Companion fans.
Product arrived quickly, in a sealed wrapper around the disc container

Keillor's Radio show.

I loved the movie, the characters depicted Garrison Keillor's radio show as if they were members of the show's cast.
