Editorial
One of the Coens’ finest dark comedies, this is a thrillingly unpredictable parable of the chaos and cruelty that rears its head in everyday existence. Featuring some of the brothers’ funniest characters, this eccentric vision of Jewish-American life in 1960s suburbia is profound in its mysteries.
