Radio hits the multiplex this summer

Robert Altman films don't always draw huge audiences but are usually critical faves & I think I saw something about this one wow-ing critics at some film festival. I've never heard the show but Meryl Streep & Lily Tomlin as a country sister act should be worth the admission price alone.

Kind of makes me appreciate simpler times...

I am a part time jock at a radio station on Saturdays. I get off at 7 PM. I turn on P. H. C. and just enjoy to listening to radio done with imagination for the long trip home. It makes me laugh, it makes me cry, and it makes me think.
Not at all what I do on the radio. If you are a lover of radio then don't deny yourself this treat on Saturday nights on your local NPR station.

Great advice! I found PHC four years ago, and within the first five minutes I was hooked :) This looks like it's going to be well worth the trip to the theater.
