The Big Picture (1989)

Hollywood beckons for recent film school grad Nick Chapman, who is out to capitalize on the momentum from his national award-winning student film. Studio executive Allen Habel seduces Nick with a dream deal to make his first feature, but once production gets rolling, corporate reality begins to intervene: Nick is unable to control a series of compromises to his high-minded vision, and it's all he can do to maintain his integrity in the midst of filmmaking chaos.

I didn't think Christopher Guest made unfunny movies, but I guess I didn't see The Big Picture.

"I don't know you. I don't know your work. But I think you are a genius. And I am never wrong about that" A young hopefull going to Hollywood for the first time, well that will always be a concept full of potential. A young Kevin Bacon shows a lot of potential as well, and in my opinion he is very well cast and gives a good performance. There is a surprising cameo from John Cleese, which is a great surprise. Martin Short and Jennifer Jason-Leigh give very strong and appealing performances as well. This film gives a great look and a good indication of what LA is about, specially through the eyes of a filmmaker. Honestly, its not appealing at all. As an actor myself, the work would be the only draw card. For the story, the plot is weak and so much more coud have beeen done with it. This film could have been more engaging if the lead character had more to fight against. But it is a good watch, and dont let Teri Hatcher's hair style freak you out!

One of the smartest and funniest films of the year, at least for those who care about its subject. Every regular filmgoer should. Through the story of a talented but naive film school graduate (Kevin Bacon`s Nick Chapman) who suddenly becomes the hottest property in Hollywood, Guest assembles a deadly accurate sociology of the contemporary film industry-and its accuracy makes The Big Picture both hilarious and terrifying.

Fun silly movie about being true to yourself and not selling yourself when true happiness is with your family and friends. Lots of cameos to boot.

This movie is pure Christopher Guest. Ironic, hilarious, and it stars Kevin Bacon. Seriously, what more could you want. I loved it.
