I had to stop at 2 clips. I didn't want to spoil my dinner with too much appetizer.

A friend who's at Cannes *raved.* He said the only thing better so far is the new Gus Van Sant:

Paranoid Park

I watched them all. I figure I'll forget all about them by the time the movie comes out.

Alright, my friends. It's time for another solid little rock jam

A Cohen Bros film I'll want to see? That would be fantastic. I miss their films.

Likewise. But the last couple weren't great. Intolerable Cruelty was just that. But I'm a huge fan of Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, Hudsucker, Barton Fink, The Big Lebowski, etc. O Brother, not so much.

Looks like Javier Bardem will be kicking some ass throughout this. Has a Blood Simple feel to it. If 4 minutes of clips can give you a feel.

No? I like the picaresque feel to it. And Cloony's dorky Everyman rules.

Miller's Crossing, brah.

Yeah, haven't seen Intolerable Cruelty or The Ladykillers. The commercials made them seem pretty pandered to the mainstream. Although, that's why we have trailers, isn't it?

And O Brother is almost classic Coen Bros. Almost.

classic coen brothers o brother may not be, but its still my favorite movie of theirs, as well as just simply one of my favorite movies of all time.

You are incorrect. Both films are worth a rental.

If you're a fan of laughing.

I had a copy of The Man Who Wasn't There sitting in a drawer in my house for years and I didn't even know it and now I don't know where it is.

I'd reverse this and suggest watching the original Ealing film. But I would say that wouldn't I.
Nice bowl of Crunchy Nut you got here, pretty expensive as I recall.
