Can a movie have no real plot (well, it’s the last show, I know)…, not really be about anything (well, death, sure, I know…) and get by purely on acting and directing? Yes, indeed it can with Robert Altman behind the camera. You won’t even mind watching Garrison Kiellor’s alien mug for a couple hours.
