I bought a Coen Brothers box set today. It features the following films:

 

A Serious Man

Burn After Reading (Seen)

The Big Lebowski (Seen)

Hudsucker Proxy

Barton Fink

Intolerable Cruelty

Blood Simple

 

I'm quite pleased. The question is which is your favourite and which one should I watch tonight before going to bed!!?

 

And....GO

If you want your night ruined watch Intolerable Cruelty. If not then watch A Serious Man just for the soundtrack. Best fucking soundtrack in YEARS!

that track reminded me a lot of a track from Mike Leighs film Naked.

Squee, I respect you as a person and as a lover. I'll give WATMM six minutes to convince me away from A Serious Man.

i say watch barton fink. just understand that it's a massively great film and that it may not be easy to see it that way at first. my first viewing was not a positive one, the second was intense as hell.. hell!

 

 

hudsucker is my least favorite coens movie next to the ladykillers.

I think a Serious Man holds a record for being the fastest film I've ever turned off. Why they gave it the most excruciatingly boring intro with some dude speaking directly at the camera I guess only the Coens know. I thought I had film patience but I guess not when it comes to Jews.

After this I listened to geogaddi and I didn't like it, I was quite vomitting at some tracks, I realized they were too crazy for my ears, they took too much acid to play music I stupidly thought (cliché of psyché music) But I knew this album was a kind of big forest where I just wasn't able to go inside.

I was in US tjis summer, and eat in KFC. FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!

 

So i hope this woman is not like kfc chicken, otherwise she'll be pulled to pieces.

Hitler didn't have patience either :(

 

What are you even talking about? Theres only one intro and its neither boring, nor is there some dude speaking directly at the camera.

You must have been watching the news :facepalm:

 

A Serious Man holds a solid place in my top 5 favourite films. It is a joy and terror to watch each time. Theres an amazing feeling of helplessness and dread throughout the film. Yet its still so entertaining and beautiful to watch things unfold.

 

A lot of their films I've yet to watch though. Surprised No Country for Old Men isn't included in the boxset to be honest.

I wonder how they decide on these box sets...

A Serious Man is worth it for the Korean bribe scene alone.

through the years, a man peoples a space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms, tools, stars, horses and people. shortly before his death, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines traces the image of his own face.
