(66) Nashville

Directed by Robert Altman
Rated R
1975
159 minutes

*****

Robert Altman's 1975 masterpiece about a large group of people in the title city for a political rally is just about one of the best uses of a large cast I've ever seen. Every character (easily over 25) is fleshed out completely, and it makes for a brilliant portrait of life in about five different tax brackets while still injecting itself with great music and performances at the same time.
