dark humor

The cynical Coen brothers satirized all the characters in the film. Needless to say, the other characters are stupid. The female detective is also an idiot in the eyes of the Coen brothers. Because of being so clever and so capable, after handling a major case, the ultimate destination of a police detective is nothing more than nagging in the arms of an idiot husband. Because of cultural differences, we Chinese people will mistakenly believe that the author is praising the female police detective as the “two leaders inside and outside” for “getting out of the hall and into the kitchen”. In fact, the author is satirizing the female detective. If you want to show how stupid a woman is, you can’t directly describe her as stupid. You have to describe her as smart, and then make her willingly commit herself to a stupid man. She's stupid.
This movie is so humorous, I couldn't laugh many times.

4.5; rewatch; use coincidences to drive coincidences, use accidents to produce accidents, uncontrollable out-of-control trends in real life, multi-line narrative packages sweep everyone in the storm of destiny; the rhythm of the camera and the lines of the machine perfectly create black humor , The absurdity and unrestrained life of impermanent life, when everything is out of order and trivial life factors collide, the dumb laughter is deeper than all the crying and laughter; revisiting the influence of Fang Juekeen on many latecomers.

Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Mr. Lundegaard? This is Reilly Diefenbach from GMAC. How are you this morning?
Jerry Lundegaard: [into the phone] Real good. How are you?
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Pretty good, Mr. Lundegaard. I must say, you are damn hard to get a hold of over the phone.
Jerry Lundegaard: Well, we're pretty darn busy here, but that's the way we like it.
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Well, that's for sure. The reason why I've been trying to reach you is that these last financing documents that you sent over to us... I can't read the serial numbers of the vehicles...
Jerry Lundegaard: [getting nervous] Yah, well I already got the money. The loans are in place. I already got the...
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Yah, the 320 thousand... you got the money last month from us.
Jerry Lundegaard: So, we're all set then.
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Yah, but the vehicles that you're borrowing on, I just can't read the serial numbers on your application. Maybe if you could just read...
Jerry Lundegaard: Yah, but the deal's already done. I've already got the money.
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Yah, but we have an audit here and I just have to know that these vehicles that your financing with this money that they really exist.
Jerry Lundegaard: [getting more nervous] Well... they exist all right.
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Well, I'm pretty sure they do, but I can't read the serial numbers here. Maybe if you could read the numbers to me on the first...
Jerry Lundegaard: Yah... well... see... I don't have them in front of me. Why don't I just fax you over a copy?
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] No, no, a fax is no good. That's what I have here and I can't read the darn thing.
Jerry Lundegaard: Yah, I'll have my girl send you a copy then.
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] Okay, that's good. But I need to tell you that if I can't correlate these numbers with those specific vehicles, then I'm gonna have to call back all that money.
Jerry Lundegaard: How much money did you say that was?
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] $320,000. I have to correlate that money with the cars that it's being lent on.
Jerry Lundegaard: Okay, no problem. I'll just fax...
Reilly Diefenbach: [voice] No, no...
Jerry Lundegaard: I mean send it right over. I'll shoot it right over. Good bye.
