However, she is rescued by the headwaiter Paul Dumond, who punches Michael and locks Bruce and his private eyes in a closet. The pair then escapes and spends a wonderful night together in the restaurant Chateau Bleu, where Paul and his best friend Chef Cesare work, and fall in love with eachother. Meanwhile, Bruce murders Michael and blackmails Irene, blaming Paul and forcing her to travel with him to New York.

Best in Show

1 hr 30 mins
At the prestigious Mayflower Dog Show, a "documentary film crew" captures the excitement and tension displayed by the eccentric participants in the outrageously hilarious satire Best In Show. This biting send-up exposes the wondrously diverse dog owners who travel from all over America to showcase their four-legged contenders. Mild-mannered salesman Gerry Fleck (Eugene Levy) and his vivacious wife, Cookie (Catherine O'Hara), happily prepare their Norwich Terrier, while shop owner Harlan Pepper (Christopher Guest) hopes his Bloodhound wins top prize. As two upwardly mobile attorneys (Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock) anxiously ready their neurotic Weimaraner and an ecstatically happy gay couple (Michael McKean and John Michael Higgins) dote on their tiny Shih Tzu, inept commentator Buck Laughlin (Fred Willard) vainly attempts to provide colorful tidbits about each breed.
