20. BEST IN SHOW (2000)
Director Christopher Guest's improvised dogumentary is as funny as any scripted comedy released this millennium. Fred Willard deservedly won kudos for his scene-snatching role as the 125th annual Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show's clueless colorman, Buck Laughlin, but equally fine performances are turned in by SCTV vets Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara (as owners Gerry and Cookie Fleck) Spinal Tap's Guest (as bloodhound enthusiast/ventriloquist Harlan Pepper), and Michael McKean (who's as understated as his on-screen significant other, John Michael Higgins, is over the top).
