Go backstage with 'A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION', and experience the laughter and joy of down-home America's favorite radio show. Acclaimed director Robert Altman ('Gosford Park', 'The Player') leads an all-star cast in this magical, fictional account of the legendary show's final radio broadcast. As cast and crew assemble one last time to sing, tell stories and reminisce, the result is an unforgettable homage to a beloved American treasure.
Synopsis: The movie is a celebrity version of Garrison Keillor's radio show. It adds a slight story of the radio show ending as a new owner has bought the Fitzgerald theater that the show broadcasts from and is going to tear it down. Another fantasy element is thrown in as an angel stalks the theater to take one of the performers.
