A Prairie Home Companion Movie Synopsis
A comic backstage fable about a fictitious radio variety show that has managed to survive in the age of television.
On a rainy Saturday night in St. Paul, Minnesota, fans file into the Fitzgerald Theater to see "A Prairie Home Companion," a staple of radio station WLT, not knowing that WLT has been sold to a Texas conglomerate and that tonight's show will be the last.
Great movie, I loved it. It might be slow to some, but if you like character driven movies you will enjoy this. The acting and story are top-notch.
Interesting film that gave me a glimpse into an era not too long ago when radio was live and everyday people lived every instance in the moment. If an error was done it was corrected immediately and they moved on to the next song. That environment is gone forever but this movie has captured the essence for all time. The attempt at comedy was weak so this one gets ***`s.
This Movie Is Bad Bad Bad I Hate it the plot is ok but the fact Lindsay Lohan is in it and she sings makes it bad it`s sould be 0 stars it should have never been done!
