Plot

From the genius behind "Spinal Tap" comes a quirky but ultimately warm hearted side swipe at dog shows and the obsessive neurosis of man's best friends' masters and mistresses. Best In Show is beautifully observed and offbeat, too outright funny to be a satire and unwilling to make its eclectic bag of characters irredeemably unpleasant. A clever, occasionally hysterical, low-key gem.
