Catherine O'Hara and Fred Willard are unstoppable. There are so many talented cast members in the Christopher Guest mockumentaries, but those two are the cream of the crop. It might be the first time I've ever used the phrase "cream of the crop", but if something ever deserved it, this is it.
Overall, For Your Consideration is solid. It doesn't have as many memorable moments as Best in Show, maybe because movies about making a movie are more common than movies about dog shows. The dialogue is frequently laugh out loud worthy, and everyone in the cast gets time to shine. Fred Willard and Jane Lynch's talk show hosts are overall the standout scenes. I was over Jane Lynch's schtick at the height of Glee, but she makes facial expressions just standing still in this that were cracking me up.
