This was probably the most joyless film I have ever seen. Gives new meaning to the word slooooow. Started at the end. Went nowhere. Not one character I cared about or liked. Cold winter of New York and Chicago. Didn't come near capturing the flavor of the folk music era. I didn't even find Burnett's soundtrack memorable.
Cohen brothers, where are all the qualities you normally bring to the screen? Oh, Cohen brothers, where art thou?
(d'ya like that one? -wink- )
I too am worried about the Coen Brothers. Where's the Fargo wit and cynicism and wondrous portraits of stupidity? Sounds like a loser of a film. I'll avoid it. Thanks.
