Not sure about anyone else, but I actually know people like this.

Justagirl2, I am glad I am not the only one. I know people who really talk and act like that. My guess is, so does Parker Posey and thats what she was doing with her character.
I hear people on their cel phones at Starbucks talk about things I would be embarrassed for anyone to hear.

So, after this little walk down memory lane, I had to watch it again. And I laughed all the way through it. Again.
And I have to add - how scary an actor IS Christopher Guest?!? To think he gives these performances while also directing the piece is jaw-dropping. And if you put even just the two performances from GUFFMAN and SHOW side-by-side, it's . . . well, scary.
I've said before, and I'm still convinced, he's our most underrated actor. Lots of attention for the direction and vision, but because of that, the actual performances don't get the attention I think they deserve.
People talk about actors like Streep, who have a certain 'flare' for dialect/accent, and he's never mentioned! Look at the movie here (SHOW) - his depth of understanding of the rhythm, idioms and overall 'style' is absolutely complete. It's as if he works with a whole different voicebox every time.
I can't remember which movie it was (MRS. HENDERSON PRESENTS, maybe?) but he played a British Cultural Minister (or something) - and I thought, "If I didn't know who he was, I'd wonder who this wonderful British actor is that I've never heard of."
And to some extent, I think Catherine O'Hara falls into this category, as well.
Once again, I think it's yet another example of actors specializing in comedy not getting the props they deserve. Although, sometimes, people just HAVE to take notice (like O'Hara's Oscar nod for CONSIDERATION.)
