Where would you put "The Big Picture"? I think it was Christopher Guest's first as a director, with many of the same folks (Michael McKean for sure). Not a mocumentary, but funny as hell.

I love The Big Picture, probably more than any of these except Spinal Tap (although they're so different it's hard to compare). Martin Short is awesome in that movie, as is JT Walsh may he RIP.

"Oh, I see you're a director. That's great, Jimmy our busboy's a director!"

"Where are you from?"
"Iowa."
"Oh, really? My second ex-wife is from Illinois."

Quotes probably massacred as they are from memory.

Martin Short, as agent, wooing new director Kevin Bacon:
"I haven't seen your work, but I know you are VERY talented."

Then he sees someone across the restaurant and yells with a smile: "Oh you.... I'm not talking to you!"

Also, the student films were hilarious.
