Produktbeschreibung

"Color stills, behind-the-scenes stories, interviews and insightful analysis of each film...will put a smile on the face of all film buffs." ?The Detroit Free Press From such cult hits asRaising Arizona(1987) andThe Big Lebowski(1998) to major critical darlingsFargo(1996),No Country for Old Men(2007), andInside Llewyn Davis(2013), Ethan and Joel Coen have cultivated a bleakly comical, instantly recognizable voice in modern American cinema. InThe Coen Brothers: This Book Really Ties the Films Together, film critic Adam Nayman carefully sifts through their complex cinematic universe in an effort to plot, as he puts it, "some Grand Unified Theory of Coen-ness." The book combines critical text-biography, close film analysis, and enlightening interviews with key Coen collaborators-with a visual aesthetic that honors the Coens' singular mix of darkness and levity. Featuring film stills, beautiful and evocative illustrations, punchy infographics, and hard insight, this book is the definitive exploration of the Coen brothers' oeuvre.
