Belles à mourir

Here's a film that asks: what if beauty pageants were more like the opening scene of *Hamlet*? The residents of a small Minnesota town prepare for their annual competition, but a string of escalating accidents threatens several contestants. It manages to be a Christopher Guest-style mockumentary with actual attempted murder.
