Movie Show Theater: The Podcast

Before The Office and before Borat, we were introduced to Nigel Tufnel, Derek Smalls, and David St. Hubbins. All of Christopher Guest's film are cringe-worthy hilarious, but Spinal Tap is something special. Real life famed director, Rob Reiner, plays (fictional) director Marty DiBergi filming this documentary on the legendarily awkward (and fictional) rock band Spinal Tap. I'm here to tell you, this movie stands the test of time. It's only gained relevancy over the thirty-two years since its original release. We don't often tackle comedies, but this is more of a standard of comedy. The Edge and Tom Waits are famous for not laughing at this at all, as they were not aware it was supposed to be a comedy. It's that true to life and that accurate. There's too many amazing lines to even begin quoting. Enjoy and thanks for supporting Movie Show Theater!
