Everybody Loves Parker Posey

Meg Swan is all sharp angles and biting retorts as she attempts to maneuver her dog into becoming a prizewinner in the film Best in Show, the first in Best Video’s January film series celebrating the work of actor Parker Posey, who plays Swan. Though definitively part of Christopher Guest’s stellar ensemble that finds the laughter in between — and, more often than not, within — the discomfort, Posey’s character stands out, as she has done in nearly every film role she has committed to since she first arrived on the movie scene in the 1990s.
