Rule number fifteen about living in the relatively film deprived city of Prague: when a new Coen brothers film starring John Turturro and John Goodman is in theatres, you go see it twice.

O Brother, Where Art Thou?O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a period piece set in the Deep South of the 1930s has all the familiar tropes known to Coen fans, but also a few surprises.

George Clooney seems to have found a niche for himself and is genuinely funny, although it would be hard not to be with this script.

Thinky's rating: See you in line, porcupine.
