Documentary filmmaker Heather Ross , whose new project For Madmen Only: The Stories Of Del Close is newly available on VOD, celebrates Christopher Guest's  1996 feature Waiting For Guffman -- in which the actor and filmmaker recruited Fred Willard, Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, Parker Posey, Bob Balaban and another half-dozen very funny people to make up a story about some amateur theater performers celebrating the sesquicentennial of a small Missouri town.  And once you've listened to this episode, you might want to check out Andy Kindler on Guest's earlier comedy The Big Picture.
