Fact of laughs #157: dressing up dogs in people-flavoured clothes is funny. So perhaps it's no surprise to see that Best In Show - a comedy about canine obsessives whose puppy love borders on unrequited bestiality - gets a cheap, heaving splutter out of dressing up a Shih-Tzu as Scarlett O'Hara. So far, so predictable, but, to its credit, the movie holds back its most obvious joke until the final five minutes, by which time it's clear that this isn't really a comedy about dogs at all. It's a comedy about people who use their pets as yapping vessels for their own doubtful ambitions.
