Best movie ever. Endastory.

Rating: 10/10 (10 January 2014)

You either get Fargo or you don't. I have a friend who now thinks I like "quirky" movies and has recommended some not-great films, since she really didn't understand why this film struck such a chord with me.
Sure, being from Wisconsin helps. It was the first time I recall sitting in a theater and laughing hysterically -- my husband actually had to whisper in my ear at one point, "Ssssh! Try to keep it down!" I had never heard anyone nail that accent and the mannerisms of that area so well, and it floored me. But, more than that, the characters are so brilliantly created --the hooker from White Bear Lake ("Go Bears!")-- not only added to the story, but was absolutely hilarious. Here it is almost 20 years later (impossible to believe!) and there isn't a day that goes by when I don't utter at least one classic Fargo line.
The best. Period.
