20 Best Movies About The Movies Of All Time

15. For Your Consideration

Hail Cesare
Warner Independent Pictures

Christopher Guest takes aim at awards season hype in this satire about the film industry. After a group of actors hear they may be tipped for Oscar nominations once their film is released, pandemonium ensures on the set as everyone quickly becomes obsessed with the chance at winning gold statuettes.

For Your Consideration lovingly pokes fun at the madness that comes with awards attention and can often be a hilarious film. The ensemble is strong with several great comedy actors in bit parts that are memorable and amusing.

By far the best performance from the cast comes from Catherine O'Hara who wants nothing more than to receive the same level of critical acclaim as her idols did. As she begins to let the possibility of a nomination take over her life, her obsession becomes increasingly unhealthy. O'Hara received a Critics' Choice nomination for her work which was extremely deserved.

Deeply witty and funny, For Your Consideration tackles the buzz of the Oscars with a surreal honesty and charm.
