Video Essay: The Coens & The Common Man
Posted by Phil on Aug 4, 2016 in All, Film, News, Video Essay | 0 comments
Mr. Nerdista has put together a new video essay. This one looks at the films of the Coen Brothers.
So… The Coens. Not only are they two of the most talented writer/directors working in Hollywood today, they’re also two of the very few who empower simplicity. Their exploration of the common man/woman is something that has always fascinated me. Hopefully this video fascinates you too!
