The Coen Brothers: This Book Really Ties the Films Together
Fans of Fargo , The Big Lebowski , No Country for Old Men , and other modern classics will enjoy this "definitive history of the Coen brothers oeuvre" ( Indiewire ). From such cult hits as Raising Arizona (1987) and The Big Lebowski (1998) to major critical darlings Fargo (1996), No Country for Old Men (2007), and Inside Llewyn Davis (2013), Ethan and Joel Coen have cultivated a bleakly comical, instantly recognizable voice in modern American cinema. In The Coen Brothers: This Book Really Ties the Films Together , film critic Adam Nayman carefully sifts through their complex cinematic universe in an effort to plot, as he puts it, "some Grand Unified Theory of Coen-ness." With a combination of biography, close analysis, and enlightening interviews with key Coen collaborators, this book honors the films' singular mix of darkness and levity, and is the definitive exploration of the Coen brothers' oeuvre.
