Rating: 9/10 (16 November 2015)

Film take place in the town after which it's named. At the outset we meet with Jerry (William H. Macy), a car salesman who has a meeting with criminals Grimsrud (Peter Stormare) and Charles (Steve Buscemi). Jerry is in big financial problems and decides to carry out the kidnapping of his own wife in order to extract ransom money from his wife's father. Criminals help him, but from the very beginning of things fall out of control. Followed by a series of unexpected events that will lead to fatal consequences, the team is chased by Marge (Frances McDormand), persistent local police officer. Cohen Brothers are specific for many reasons and bases their admirers from year to year increasing. Their films do not feature special effects, chases and a waste of money during the filming, but the subtle art that is best reflected in the superb directing and original screenplay full of extremely interesting and different characters. Most of the projects are signed to earn a solid sum of the cinema ticket offices, but they prefer to be their bosses, without conditions and interference in the work, which is typical for a big Hollywood studios, which often kill authorial innovation.
