The residents of Blaine, Missouri - the self-proclaimed home of the first UFO landing in the United States (Blaine residents beg to differ with Roswell's claims) and stool capital of the world - are excited about the town's upcoming sesquicentennial celebrations, which will have as its centerpiece the original musical production, "Red, White and Blaine". Assisted by high school music teacher Lloyd Miller, Corky St. Clair, the musical's writer/composer and former New York theater professional (off off off off Broadway) who currently leads the Blaine Community Players, will helm the production. Corky and Lloyd are excited about their 'talented' cast of locals and the production as a whole, Corky and Lloyd who themselves are as untalented and unaware as their cast. Corky and company are especially anticipating the presence of Mort Guffman in the audience on opening night, he a representative of the prestigious New York based Oppenheimer Organization. In Corky's mind, a favorable review from Guffman means that the production is heading to Broadway. Through all the ups and downs and more downs of the pre-production, everyone in Blaine still can't wait for opening night and the arrival of Guffman, upon who the cast and crew's dreams rest.
Leave your thoughts about Waiting for Guffman.
| Apollo GuideDerek SmithIt's smart, witty, goofy and hugely entertaining. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversI lost it just watching Corky show off such memorabilia as "My Dinner With Andre" action figures and a "Remains of the Day" lunch box. Priceless. |
| NewsweekDavid AnsenThirty minutes into Waiting for Guffman, my stomach hurt from laughing. |
| L.A. WeeklyF. X. FeeneyYet Waiting for Guffman is never mean-spirited. Its weird warmth is perfectly embodied by Guest himself, whose flamboyant, stagestruck choreographer, Corky St. Clair, could have (in less ingenious hands) been a cruel, gay-bashing caricature, but instead becomes a hallucinatory Everyman. |
| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesGuest's comedic sense of timing combined with the hilarious script had me laughing so hard I thought I would burst. |
| Rochester Democrat and ChronicleJack GarnerThough each of the actors generates moments of hilarity, Guest's Corky St. Clair is clearly the film's most memorable character. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliThere is such a thing as comic momentum, and Guest has a good sense of what that means. Comic momentum doesn't refer to nonstop jokes, but to an atmosphere that is always ripe for humor. |
| Needcoffee.comWidgett WallsEveryone will think it's funny; people who've actually done community theatre will laugh themselves into a coma. |
| Cinema em CenaPablo VillaçaTrabalhando em um subgênero que praticamente ajudou a crier (o do pseudocumentário), Guest cria mais um filme que diverte por compreender tão bem seu tema e seus personagens. |
| Common Sense MediaEllen DendyFab small-town spoof; subtle humor may bore kids. |
