Description
The Coen brothers have made their mark on modern cinema with a series of distinctive, absurdist films, showcasing their unique reworking of Hollywood genres. This revised and updated edition of Joel and Ethan Coen: Blood Siblings details this unique creative partnership: from their debut, Blood Simple, a chilling Texan film noir, to O Brother Where Art Thou?, a Depression-era comedy based on Homer's Odyssey and 1940s screwball comedies, and The Man Who Wasn't There, a stylistic realization of the Coens' noir vision - plus their most recent projects, the romantic black comedy Intolerable Cruelty, and The Ladykillers, a Deep Southern revision of the classic Ealing comedy.
Collected here is an outstanding selection of the most important interviews, articles and reviews about the Coen brothers and their films: exclusive interviews with Michel Ciment and Hubert Niogret; Peter Biskind on the Oscar-winning Fargo; rare articles on the Coens' early career, plus commentary by critics such as Todd McCarthy, Kim Newman and John Naughton. This unique anthology reveals director/screenwriter Joel and producer/screenwriter Ethan as a perversely witty sibling partnership, following the stylistic path less travelled: cinema's most unpredictable auteurs. |
