After a few financial flops, the Coens went back to basics and tried something different for their sixth film, a little crime drama called Fargo that hit big.
Love the Coen Bros. Favourite of theirs may have to be 'The Big Lebowski', but there have been so many awesome offerings. That blend of irony, genre subversion and left-of-field life meditation keeps you glued. Enjoy reading their screenplays for the same reasons.
Love this! And yes, their stuff really is fascinating (which is why No Country For Old Men still feels like such an outlier). I am wayyy overdue for a Big Lebowski rewatch.

Loved this analysis of one of their greatest 👏
Thank you for reading! Is Fargo also your favourite Coens movie or do you have another one? They have so many great ones that it's hard to pick
Raising Arizona, Fargo, Big Lebowski, O Brother
