Synopsis

The Coen brothers critically acclaimed debut feature is a film noir thriller, with dark comic touches, set in rural Texas. A man hires a sleazy private eye to kill his wife and her lover, leading to double and triple crosses that build to a wonderful climax. The film owes much to The Postman Always Rings Twice and other tales of illicit love, jealousy, greed and violence, but it has its own peculiar sensibility and magnetic visual style. With Frances McDormand, John Getz, Dan Hedaya, and M. Emmet Walsh in one of the great villainous performances of recent years. Joel Coen---USA---1984---96 mins.

I can't say I really liked or enjoyed this, since it was so intensely violent. But it was also interesting, and had well-done nuances using such things as ceiling fans. I had to finish watching.

If you are fan of the Coen brothers then I highly recommend this first film of theirs. All the elements are there, dark humor, violence and serendipity.

This movie is a prime example of what happens when you don't look at the picture as a whole. Great film with all types of twist and turns that shows the coen brothers signature style in it's child like (observate) stage.
