You are in for a treat today, pilgrim! I'll be ranking my favorite Western films of all time. I have a feeling many of these films will get a tip of my hat. However, I hope some of them are bad so I can shoot them into their grave. Keep your trigger finger ready and your eyes on the screen—yee-haw!
Producer Peter finally had to watch movies at 1x speed this week for the Cage Match Finale. Pig vs Raising Arizona. Sarnoski vs Coens. Nick vs Sean. We rented a local theater and watched a double header with a full house of guests. As it turns out, movies are fun in a theater. We are not done but this is a perfect time to thank everyone for listening and supporting us over the years. This was Cage Match.Intro music by: Bill Panks
The Coens keep coming this week on Hell of a Picture as we dive into the ‘87 screwball comedy, Raising Arizona. The guys open the show discussing the comedic influences of the film and how it manages to make horrible crimes both funny and endearing. Andrew talks about the semi-fantastical setting, while Dave touches on the movie's political leanings. They talk about the American dream, the baby-boom of 80's film, and the movie's message of hope. Before we begin, did you get your dip-tet shot? You've got to get the dip-tet shot. That's this week on Hell of a Picture.

Since this podcast's inception, Anton Chigurh has been one of our most requested rogues. This week, we're playing a game of chance with this formidable foe as we finally dive deep into No Country for Old Men. Topics include: the origins of Cormac McCarthy's novel, the Coens process of adapting it, key differences between Chigurh's portrayal in the book vs the movie, reactions to the subversive final act, what the movie leaves out, the ways in which it might actually one-up the source material, and much more!

We've recently lost one of the great directors over the last few decades in David Lynch who was known for showing the dreamy and nightmarish side of America (and we need you now, David). The other great tellers of American stories over the same period have been Joel and Ethan Coen. They have protagonists who start out in precarious positions in life....then things go downhill. Welcome to episode 124 of See Hear Podcast. There's definitely a rhythm to the Coen Brothers' films....even if their films are not ABOUT music or musicians, they feel musical (and having Carter Burwell score many of their films doesn't hurt in that regard). Two films, however, stick out as music films in their catalogue – O Brother, Where Art Thou and Inside Llewyn Davis – it's the latter that is the focus of this episode. Sadly, neither Kerry nor Tim were available to record this show, but I welcome back film professor, author, and fellow podcaster Neil Fox back to the show. He selected Inside Llewyn Davis for our discussion, and I couldn't have been happier to revisit this 2013 film that has seemingly divided people on its merits (spoiler alert – we both love it). The film starts off in Greenwich Village in 1961, and is about a few days in the life of folk musician Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) as he moves from couch to couch, gig to gig, kindness to kindness....and he responds poorly despite being the recipient of others' good nature towards him. Is he an awful human being, or is he lashing out due to a terrible event regarding a former musical partner? Neil and I had a great conversation about this film and a variety of related issues. Since the film is Bob Dylan adjacent, we had to bring in our thoughts about the recently released Dylan biopic focusing on his early years, A Complete Unknown and see how its tone contrasts with the Coens outlook. I am grateful for Neil giving over his time to chat with me. He brings a perspective I was fascinated to hear. If you wish to hear more of Neil, you should tune into his show The Cinematologists hosted with Dario Llinares.

In episode two of our Visionary Remakes season, we survey the recent Coen brothers remake of True Grit (2010) and compare it to the original film, a John Wayne vehicle from 1969.Special Guest: Brian Eggert is the owner and film critic of Deep Focus Review, where he has written movie reviews, in-depth essays, and critical analyses since 2007. Brian also regularly appears on KARE 11, the NBC affiliate for the Twin Cities, to review and discuss movies. He belongs to the Society For Cinema and Media Studies, Minnesota Film Critics Alliance, Online Film & Television Association, International Film Society Critics, Independent Film Critics of America, The Critics Circle, and National Coalition of Independent Scholars.Westerns have gone through many cycles since the beginning of filmmaking. Right now, we are seeing an uptick in interest as the tv show Yellowstone dominates the traditional tv market. But back in 2010, Westerns were definitely far off in the background as comic book movies had begun to take over the box office. In 2010, the Coen brothers were coming off a very successful adaption of No Country for Old Men (2007) as well as two more left of center films, the sprightly spy romp Burn After Reading from 2008 and the niche existentialist A Serious Man from 2009. It is unclear why they decided to remake True Grit and focus on the novel from 1968 instead of the John Wayne movie which came a year later in 1969, but the choice was very successful. True Grit (2010) became the 2nd biggest Western in the modern box office.The 2010 True Grit showcases the refined talents of the Coens alongside the gorgeous cinematography of Roger Deakins, the layered and rich music from Carter Burwell, and a smashing breakout debut performance from Hailee Steinfeld as the lead Mattie Ross. The 1969 version of True Grit offers so much less. Despite John Wayne winning an Oscar for his portrayal of Rooster Cogburn, the original film seems totally out of step and out of time. In hindsight, it was an end-of-the-line production for the core creatives involved. The director, writer, and star actor were all at the end of their careers. Indeed this very type of Western was on its last leg as evidenced by the giant leap the genre made at the same time this film was being produced and released. Watch any of the bigger westerns from the late 1960s and then try to sit through True Grit (1969). The dislocation and disorientation is severe. The original True Grit was a swan song that came about a decade too late.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay just got back from pullin' off a job at Brainerd so they can talk about the Coen Bros' crime-comedy masterpiece 'Fargo.' Andy kicks off the episode by remembering when he dragged a group of friends (and their parents) to see this R-rated chiller in theater. Then the boys indulge in a fountain of conversation...a geyser, as they talk about what is perhaps the Coens' funniest movie. Stuffed with inept criminals and all-around low lifes, the film features a never-funnier Steve Buscemi and his sociopathic partner who embark on a crime/killing spree to kidnap the wife of William H. Macy's bumbling Jerry. Fortunately, Frances McDormand's saintly Marge is on the case to pick up nightcrawlers, endless orders of fast food, and apprehend the criminals who robbed and murdered people all while ruining a perfectly beautiful day. The lying and scheming degens may be popping out of every crevice — including hotel bars at the Radisson — but Marge's resolute goodness prevails. Oh geez, just check out the episode.

Sparse. Laconic. Expansive. Languid. Wry. The Coen Brother's 2007 Neo-Noir Western 'No Country For Old Men' moves to the fatefully ticking beat of it's own Grandfather Clock. It's a film that rewards close viewing and is astoundingly faithful to Cormac McCarthy's novel while also being so completely a "Coen Brothers film" even as it's their (only?) adaptation of an existing book. Featuring an iconic performance by Javier Bardem as the philosophical killer Anton Chigur, brilliant cinematography from frequent Coen collaborator Roger Deakins, and perfectly wrought twangily-Texas turns by Josh Brolin and Tommy Lee Jones. A number of signature Coens scenes of the lead characters interacting with a variety of shop clerks, receptionists, store owners, and authority figures abound.

In 1994, indie darlings the Coen Brothers went for the big time with a playful pastiche of classic Hollywood movies that pulled out every visual and comedic stop… and still crashed and burned at the box office. Host Rico Gagliano tells the story of the soaring Coens movie that paved the way for the flatlands of FARGO. Guests include HUDSUCKER's legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins (BLADE RUNNER 2049), acclaimed film podcaster Karina Longworth (YOU MUST REMEMBER THIS), and more.The latest season of The MUBI Podcast – BOX OFFICE POISON — dives into six visionary films... that were also notorious flops.

This week, we're fixin' to do somethin' dumber than hell but we're gonna do it anyway, as we close out No-Theme-ber by circling back to the coin-flip best movie of 2007, a gravely serious and barbed-wire-taut neo-western crime thriller that the Coens still manage to sneak an enormous amount of low-key goofy comedy into. It's 2007's No Country For Old Men, written and directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, based on the book by Cormac McCarthy, and starring Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Tommy Lee Jones, Woody Harrelson, Kelly Macdonald, Garrett Dillahunt, Tess Harper, Barry Corbin, Beth Grant and Stephen Root. It's Hayley's nomination for November's canon consideration as we use the last Friday of the month to induct another classic into the pod pantheon. Plus: J Mo's trip to Gladiator II has us recounting memorable bad audience behavior from our years of going to the theater. If you'd like to watch this week's movie before listening to our discussion, No Country For Old Men is now streaming on both Amazon Prime and Netflix in Canada at the time of publication. Other works referenced in this episode include Wicked, The Stand (1994), The Stand (2020), Station Eleven, Bridesmaids, Ghostbusters: Answer The Call, Super 8, Star Trek Into Darkness, The Fabelmans, The Holdovers, Transformers One, Jack Reacher, Robin Hood (2010), Abigail, Maximum Overdrive, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Mad Max: Fury Road, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, The Blues Brothers, The Big Lebowski, Grindhouse, There Will Be Blood, Inherent Vice, W. and Deadpool 2 among countless others. We'll be back next week to kick off another theme month as the last month of 2024 sees the return of A DePalmber to ReMalmber! That's right, we're going back to the well for DePalmber: Part De, which begins next Friday with The Untouchables, and continues with Body Double and our December canon entry, Blow Out.

Send us a textLee Ngo returns to talk over the Coen's forgotten noir-riff, the aptly named Man Who Wasn't There
A Serious Man (2009) may seem much different from the Coens' adaptation of No Country for Old Men, which they released two years earlier. But they both concern a likable man who finds himself posing questions that the universe–or any of its weisest men–cannot answer. And even if there are glimpses of answers to the question “What does Hashem, or God, want,” neither late-thirties Larry or late-sixties Sheriff Bell can read the writing on the wall (or, in the case of A Serious Man, the writing on the teeth). The film begins with a quotation from Rumi, “Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you.” Join us for a conversation about one of the Coens' best films and a terrific look at people to whom things happen and are forced to receive the will of a God who never tips His hand about His intentions.

In this episode, I take a deep dive into the Coen Brothers' Miller's Crossing, a 1990 neo-noir that redefined the gangster genre. I explore how Joel and Ethan Coen bring their distinctive style to this film, subverting genre conventions while maintaining their signature dark humour and narrative complexity.I discuss the outstanding performances from Gabriel Byrne as the sharp-witted Tom Reagan, Albert Finney as the tough but tender crime boss Leo, Marcia Gay Harden as the enigmatic Verna, and John Turturro's unforgettable portrayal of the desperate Bernie Bernbaum. I also examine the talented supporting cast, including Jon Polito, J.E. Freeman, and Steve Buscemi.Behind the camera, the Coens are joined by cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld, whose lush, moody visuals capture the film's intricate web of power, betrayal, and loyalty. Composer Carter Burwell adds another layer with his haunting score, further enhancing the film's atmosphere. I analyze how these elements combine to create a unique take on the gangster film, fitting seamlessly within the Coen Brothers' larger body of work.Tune in to hear my in-depth analysis of Miller's Crossing and its place in the Coen Brothers' cinematic legacy!

Joe & Adam dive headfirst into the world of the Coen Brothers, with 2016's 'Hail, Caesar!' as their way in. Discussion includes: the Coens themselves, how funny is George Clooney? The problem with Hail, Caesar! And a guessing game of some Rotten Tomatoes rankings.
We have to be thinking what if Kamala wins? What would I do now? What would I do differently? What would I do for the future? And that's really what this is all about, and the reason why the Coens and the Blackstones and Blackrock are buying hard assets is because they know that that the Republicans will ultimately not take the white house forever and eventually will succumb to a hardcore left ideology both on a social and fiscal policies. Rare coin prices have gone up considerably in the last 3 years. According to Trump's Website - 20 Core Promises To Make America Great Again, nobody cares about most of it. The things that women actually care about is why Kamala is surging in the polls. Nobody cares about deportation, nobody cares about inflation, women don't care about that because free health care alone lowers their cost or you could almost say increases their standard of living by 20 to 30 percent. That's a tax cut. That can be re-engineered regurgitated and said we are giving you a tax cut. This is the problem. We wonder why we lost so heavy in ‘22. The conservative platform is really logical and measured and it's true governance but the other team plays the emotional heartstrings and they go to the emotional leads and they're really really good at that.
