Synopsis
For Your Consideration (2006) is an American mockumentary comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Director Christopher Guest — whose earlier films include Best in Show and A Mighty Wind — turned his camera on awards season.
A low-budget indie called Home for Purim, set in a Jewish family home in the 1940s, is quietly finishing production when internet chatter about Oscar nominations starts circling around two of its cast members. Catherine O'Hara and Harry Shearer play veterans who let the rumor swallow them whole. The studio smells a hit and immediately recuts the film for mass appeal. Guest and Eugene Levy, who co-wrote the script, treat Hollywood's awards machine as the cruelest kind of comedy — one that lands hardest on people who only want to be recognized.
