Coen Classics!





The sheer number of classics in the The Coen Brothers' filmography is nearly unprecedented, with barely a single miss in a run of eighteen films - but tonight we look at two of their finest: crime capers No Country for Old Men and Fargo!






From infinitely quote-able comedies like The Big Lebowski and Raising Arizona to deep character pieces like Inside Llewyn Davis and A Serious Man, The Coen Brothers' filmography is almost unmatched in American cinema




But even among that incredible list, tonight's films stand out!



First up, a page-boy-haircut-madman hunts Josh Brolin in No Country for Old Men,




Then the unflappable Marge Gunderson solves crimes and eats Arby's in Fargo!










No Country? You betcha!
