Fargo (1996)

It only took this podcast 3 years to finally arrive in Fargo, North Dakota, but I'm so glad we did. Friend and fellow filmmaker Joey Fandel joined me this week to help pick apart this beloved tale of murder, betrayal, and goofy accents. There's so much going on under the surface of Fargo, we barely touched on the music, the gorgeous visual aesthetic, the washed out color palettes, the TV spin-off, behind the scenes stories, and the original concept, but we did our best, OK? We also talk Wonder Woman (yes, again), we share the rated R movies that scarred us as children, a rude phone call interruption from Sam Ball, a fantastically appropriate song break, and a great deal more. This is (almost) my favorite Coen Brothers film and I'm really excited to talk about it as you'll notice by my tone of voice. Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting Movie Show Theater!
