what I like of this picture

Rating: 8/10 (3 January 2005)

I love this one ! especially the landscape during the titles presentation: a different, fantastic world, yet so full of premonition; and how the hard to believe, hard to imagine, violence and light-hearted blood shed is treated; you can think that it is so exaggerated that you can refuse it and find it comic, as I did for instance when the red sock covered foot of the wife emerges from the meat-chopper: in a second moment you can also realize that all this happens everyday in our world; and what I won't forget is the character and the acting of Frances McDormand, even if I don't know how to define her: calm, peaceful, self assured, down-to-earth, matter of fact, I believe you until I discover a lie, you will not escape; everything perfect for a pregnant wife-sheriff.
