PID,

I'm a big fan of the Coen Brothers. And Blood Simple was great.

Those Coens are crafty. "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" is inspired in part by another favorite film from the 40's called "Sullivan's Travels". If you like old movies, that one is near the top of my all time list of great American films. There are so many clever references in "Oh Brother" that you could never find them all.

The only film by them I didn't love was "Barton Fink". I just don't get it.
