I finally got around to watching For Your Consideration last night. If it doesn't ring a bell, it's the latest in a long line of quirky comedies by the folks who brought you Spinal Tap, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman and A Mighty Wind.It's not an exciting movie. There are no car chases or girl on girl kiss scenes.

But if you really pay attention, there's some instant comedy in this film that can catch you off guard. There were a few times when I laughed so hard, I had to stop the movie so as not to miss anything.
Like when one actress character says, "I hurt my back. I fell over the side of an escalator."
Or when another character played by Eugene Levy sprays his foot with some anti-fungal spray, then looks at the can and says to his woman assistant as he hands it back to her, "I can't believe you keep this in your purse."
my fave part is the diaper heiress talking about how she likes latin or 'lesion' cuisine.
