If you loved Nashville, try A Prairie Home Companion
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Robert Altman, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Drama / Music territory. If that's the register that drew you to Nashville, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Prairie Home Companion is
Altman, in his late period, liked to amble. This one concerns the final broadcast of a beloved, long-running radio show. It involves various musical acts, a mysterious woman, and not much else. It’s genial enough for what it is.
