The coNE bros



Coming into this unit i had never seen a Coen Brothers film, hard to believe yes but it was in fact the truth. Just by seeing their photos in our directer bio with Klobs i could tell right from the start that they were creative people. Just by looking at this picture to the right you it kind of looks like they are always thinking, at least i think so. The first time my theory of this creative came through was in Raising Arizona when i first laid eyes on the main character H.I. he is crazy looking fellow. The story line in all three films we watched were all very unique and special in there own ways. my favorite and most entertaining was Fargo, i think i enjoyed this one the most because it making fun of where we live and it was very funny to laugh at. Although this was pretty funny on our side the plot was very depressing when it came to all the death and violence that happened for no reason. It was just different to see after watching RA. The order we watched the films seemed to be just right as we started with sweet and innocent crimes and progressed to murder and than to mass killing in No Country for all men. this was a fabulous unit and i really enjoyed watching films from a director i had never seen before.
