The film follows five entrants in a prestigious, and focuses on the slightly surreal interactions among the various owners and handlers, as they travel to the show and then compete during the show. There are also short depictions of the characters six months after the show is over. Among the comedic aspects of the film are similarities between the personalities and characteristics of the owners and those of their dogs.
Much of the dialogue was improvised. Many of the comic actors were also involved in Guest's other films, including,. The film's score was composed. Contents.Plot Best in Show is presented as a of five dogs and their owners destined to show in the Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show, held in. Segments of the documentary continuously cycle among owners and handlers as each prepares to leave for the show, arrives at the hotel, prepares backstage, handles their dog's performance, and appears in a post-show follow-up. The owners and their dogs include:Gerry and Cookie Fleck (, ), with their Winky A middle-class couple from, who run into monetary problems and are forced to sleep in the hotel's storage room when they finally arrive. Throughout the film, they encounter men Cookie has slept with during her youth.
Meg and Hamilton Swan (, ), with their Beatrice An upper-class, stereotypical yuppie couple from a fictional suburb known as Moordale, Illinois, they think they are taking great care of Beatrice (although really they are just confusing and upsetting her with their neurotic behavior), going as far as taking her to a therapist after she sees Meg and Hamilton have sex. At the show, the Swans believe that Beatrice will become unnerved without her favorite toy, the 'Busy Bee', and frantically search for a replacement for it before the show. Harlan Pepper and his Hubert The owner of a fishing goods store and an aspiring ventriloquist.
An affable man who prides himself on being able to name every type of nut, Pepper's family has raised a variety of hounds for generations, and Harlan continues the tradition by raising bloodhounds. Sherri Ann and Leslie Ward Cabot (, ) with their Rhapsody in White (a.k.a.
Butch) A two-time past winner of the show. Sherri Ann is a to the elderly Leslie, her. They are assisted by trainer Christy Cummings who makes sure the dog is truly ready for the show, while Sherri Ann fixates on giving Christy a and Leslie remains utterly oblivious. Over the course of the film, Sherri Ann and Leslie's sham marriage and Sherri Ann and Christy's romantic involvement becomes apparent. Scott Donlan and Stefan Vanderhoof (, ) and their Miss Agnes A couple, they take great pride in their dog, and are confident that she will win the competition.
They have a love of old movies, and enjoy making fun of Christy Cummings, but are friendly to the other competitors, especially the Flecks.The owners and their dogs all arrive in time for the show, which is hosted by dog expert Trevor Beckwith , and oblivious 'color' commentator Buck Laughlin. During the first round, Beatrice is disqualified when Hamilton cannot control her, but the other four dogs advance to the final round. Just before the finals, Cookie dislocates her knee and insists that Gerry take over for her. Though the audience is initially awed by seeing Gerry's 'two left feet' (the result of a birth defect), ultimately Winky takes Best in Show.Afterwards, the film explores what each character is doing after the competition. Gerry and Cookie return home to Florida and are overcome with attention after the victory.
They go on to record, in amusingly bad style, songs about terriers but discover to Gerry's frustration that the recording engineer is yet another of Cookie's ex-boyfriends (Steven Porter). Sherri Ann and Christy have entered into a partnership (It is unknown whether Leslie has died or has been divorced from Sherri Ann.) and publish a magazine for lesbian owners of purebred dogs, called American Bitch.
Harlan fulfills his dreams and becomes a ventriloquist, entertaining sparse crowds with a song and dance number. Stefan and Scott are in the process of designing a calendar featuring Shih Tzu dogs appearing in scenes, with appropriate costume, from famous classic films, such as and (and, a television show included without explanation.) Hamilton and Meg Swan no longer have Beatrice (they do not explain what became of her), allowing them to enjoy a calmer, more loving partnership as well as a new dog (a ) named Kipper who they claim enjoys watching them make love.Cast Actors. as Gerry Fleck. as Cookie Fleck. as Scott Donlan. as Stefan Vanderhoof. as Hamilton Swan.
