Directed by Robert Altman • 2006 • United States
Starring Meryl Streep, Lily Tomlin, Lindsay Lohan

Based on Garrison Keillor’s beloved radio program of the same name, Robert Altman’s deeply moving final film invites audiences to the fictional “closing night” of the fabled show. As the rain pours down on a blustery Minnesota evening, the cast tapes their final performance, while waiting for the Texas businessman who has bought the theater to arrive and shut them down. Backstage, the colorful ensemble says their goodbyes and confronts old conflicts, while out front a sold-out audience enjoys the wit and musical whimsy for which the show is famous. But when a mysterious woman appears claiming to be the angel Asphodel, it becomes apparent that this will be no ordinary closing night.
