  • A Serious Man

    That’s some esoteric shit. If this is an autobiography of the Coen brothers, were they the perma-high kid who goes through the motions at the bar mitzvah?

  • Burn After Reading

    Play it, Tuli!

  • True Grit

    A posse of Coen actors casually creates one of the best westerns ever, providing The Dude with another character for the ages.

    A reversed noir with an horror twist. A great start to a meteoric career.

  • Miller's Crossing

    Takes the cake for one of the most convoluted plots in a film noir. Makes Memento seem like The Straight Story. I posit it’s literally impossible to follow on the first view.

  • O Brother, Where Art Thou

    This is almost a variety act: singing and dancing is the bulk of it, but there’s also some drama, theatricals, and even space for political points (either more towards philosophy, or straight up politicking).

  • Hail, Caesar!

    SQUINT! SQUINT AT THE GRANDEUR!

  • The Hudsucker Proxy

    ◯. Ya’ know, fo’ kids!
