The Last Polka ★★★ 1984

SCTV vets Candy and Levy are Yosh and Stan Schmenge, polka kings interviewed for a “documentary” on their years in the spotlight and on the road. Hilarious spoof on Martin Scorsese's “The Last Waltz,” about The Band's last concert. Several fellow Second City-ers keep the laughs coming. If you liked SCTV or “This Is Spinal Tap,” you'll like this. 54m/C VHS . John Candy, Eugene Levy, Rick Moranis, Robin Duke, Catherine O'Hara; D: John Blanchard. CABLE
