Movie weekend

This last Friday, I went and saw Nacho Libre, and it was quite surprisingly good. After hearing it was directed by the same man who did Napoleon Dynamite, I was quite hesitant to go and check it out. However I was really happy to find that it was really funny just about all the way through. If there was anything in the trailer you liked, then I strongly recommend you see it.

On a similar note, I more recently got back from seeing A Prairie Home Companion. I love the radio show that plays during the weekends on NPR, but the movie wasn’t exactly what I had in mind. It pretty much all takes place during one show, which was a little disappointing. I was expecting it to be more like one or more of the stories that Garrison Keillor tells on the radio show, mixed together as an actual movie. But instead, its pretty much a filming of a made up show.
