4th time's the charm? Watch it again.

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2019)

Do you love movies? I mean really love them? The Coen's clearly do and the more I watch this one, the more I love them and this movie too. Yes, it's not perfect. Like The Big Lebowski was for me, it's an acquired taste. Some of the reviews seem to totally miss the point or just not get the heart of it. Some missed the opportunity to truly catch the romance, and I mean Ethan and Joel's lasting love affair with both the art and substance of movie making, and it makes me sad for them. This movie is about the passion and purpose of movie making. It's the "right thing to do". That's after all, that's "what God wants us to do". Father Ethan and Joel, "I get it now".
So watch it. And watch again, and maybe watch it again. I hope you find that, like me, maybe you'll begin to fall in love with movies in a deeper, more affectionate way than you ever have before.
