"A Prarie Home Companion", the MOVIE


From the IMDB message boards:

Michelle Pfeiffer and Kevin Kline are the latest stars to come aboard
director Robert Altman's movie version of "A Prairie Home Companion."
Altman dropped those names during a recent interview with Chicago
public radio station WBEZ.

"I'm literally doing a film of one of [Garrison Keillor's] radio
broadcasts, only I'm filling it with a lot of movie stars," Altman
said.

He previously announced that Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin would play
the Johnson Sisters, the two remaining members of a failed singing
act. Other cast members he named include Lyle Lovett, Tom Waits, Maya
Rudolph from "Saturday Night Live" and, of course, Keillor himself.

"He'll be in it prominently, because he's a genius," said Altman.
Keillor also wrote the screenplay for the film.

It is expected to shoot at the Fitzgerald Theatre in St. Paul sometime this winter
