It doesn't matter if he kicks three times or washes the ditch, just throw it away

A dark comedy version of the Coen brothers' existentialist work, what was elusive in the previous crime films "Blood Simple" and "Fargo" is fully expounded in the mouth of the old cowboy at the beginning and end of this film.

Just to seek compensation for a carpet, the old homeless governor accidentally got involved in a kidnapping crime. Due to a series of misunderstandings, the incident gradually led to an uncontrollable situation... In the end, not only did no one get what they wanted, the original The unrelated "bad angle" also took his life.

Personally, I think this film is the best work of the Coen brothers so far. There is neither stuttering in expression nor difficult interpretation. Although the plot is complex, the narrative is very smooth, the dialogue is dense but not redundant, and there are large sections of black. Humorous, witty words.

The "barren highway" imagery that frequently appeared in "Blood Simple" and "Fargo" is replaced by an empty bowling lane in this film.
With a casual toss, it is possible that it will be a hit, and the hand feels very good, and it is impossible to guarantee that it is not a "big shot".
Three kicks? Divide the bottle? Or wash the ditch? Leave him alone, let's throw it out first.

What is the meaning of life? Just take it easy.

    The works of the Coen brothers are anti-traditional and absurd. I don't think I can understand the Coen brothers, but the feeling of life is really what I like.

    Jeff Bridges + John Goodman + Steve Buscemi + John Turturro = Coen Brothers' All-Star lineup
