A complex and relentless antagonist is the key to great cinema

Rating: 9/10 (11 September 2019)

This film had been on my watch list for a year before I finally got around to seeing it. I was most impressed by the Coen brothers' ability to use the typical story arc for protagonists, antagonists, and supporting cast, and flip them on their head. I jaw dropped from surprise multiple times in the first act. This classic is a great watch.
