**Screenwriter**: Joan Tewkesbury **Producer**: Robert Altman Part political thriller, part comedy, part musical, part whirling dervish, this kaleidoscopic symphony of celluloid could only be conducted by the maestro himself, Robert Altman. Dozens of characters’ lives intersect in the bars, recording studios, music halls, hospitals, and airports of Music City, leading to a surprising and devastating climax. With overlapping soundtracks of dialogue, political rhetoric, and country music (written and performed by its stars including Karen Black and Ronee Blakley) and a cavalcade of fascinating characters that shoot for stardom, or fall from it, this film is a one-of-a-kind exercise in flawlessly-executed excess. Funny, cynical, and sonically enduring, you won’t want to miss a beat of *Nashville*. **Picks from the Video Store** Take home more physical media from maestro Altman tonight! *A Wedding, California Split, The Long Goodbye* **Accessibility Options**: Amplified Audio, please see the box office for devices.
