[FILM] According to the Maui Film Festival’s newsletter, the musical comedy A Prairie Home Companion is “a virtual laundry list of A-List talent,” which includes Woody Harrelson, Tommy Lee Jones, Garrison Keillor, Kevin Kline, Lindsay Lohan, Virginia Madsen, John C. Reilly, Maya Rudolph, Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin. And it’s directed by Lifetime Academy Award winning director Robert Altman. Hollywood Reporter also calls it “A cinematic Valentine to the wonderfully imaginative medium of radio.” Roger Ebert says, “What a lovely film this is, so gentle and whimsical, so simple and profound” and Wall Street Journal praises the film as “Both magical and consistently joyous… a lovely fable about mortality, fleeting fame, fondness for the past and the ineffable beauty of life in the present.” Rated PG-13. 105 min.
