Movie Haiku:As NPR junkies & Altman fans, we brought positive vibes but left disappointed. Garrison Keillor as screenwriter/star is a tall, genial center pole for a cast composed of real PHC “regulars” & famous names playing “regulars,” but there’s none of the nuance & depth of Keillor’s treasured Lake Wobegon monologues.
