@@TheSidewaySociety While I do appreciate the amount of work that must have gone into making this video, I have to question many of your choices. Do You really think that was the best scene from The Ballad of Buster Skruggs? The scene with the cowboy gleefully fighting in the bar was a thousand times better and more memorable than the scene you chose. You are doing a disservice to that movie by putting the scene you did over the bar scene. In No Country for Old Men, the scene with Anton in the rural gas station with the owner seems more iconic, and in Raising Arizona the scene where Nick Cage is being comically chased through the grocery store and other places with the amazing camera work seems a far better choice. And on and on. 🧐 And your choice for number 1 of all the Coen brother's filmography is THAT scene in Fargo? That is anticlimactic and VERY questionable.

Thank god for Frances McDormand! She has such incredible range it’s no wonder she won the Triple Crown of Acting! I like how they have their very own repertoire of stellar performers who help them achieve large box office 💵💵💵💵💵 do they still make movies? I believe you omitted The Man Who Wasn’t There.

@ thanks, I rented the Man Who Wasn’t There immediately after watching your video. Yep, the scene with Tony Shahloub, right? It’s there, you betcha, as ‘Marge’ would say. I am a Golden Age of Hollywood buff but still have to catch the most recent wave to keep my faculties sharp. Even tho the studio system collapsed, the last half of the 20th century brought us an amazing new age of Hollywood. The Coen’s seamlessly entered the 21st century with O Brother. Unfortunately, they have not worked together in five years, each producing solo projects instead. I hope u create more videos like this one. So many fantastic directors to choose from!

Any Coen scene is a great scene. I liked a few a little better. In Blood Simple: Frances McDormand to assassin (after shooting at him through the wall), (Not Marty): "I'm not afraid of you, Marty." "Well, ma'am, if I see him, I'll sure give him the message." (Dying) "Well, if I see him, I'll give him the message." No Country for Old Men: Carla Jean Moss: What're you goin to do? Llewelyn Moss: I'm fixin' to do somethin' dumbern' hell, but I'm goin' anyways. If I don't come back, tell Mother I love her. Carla Jean Moss: Your mother's dead, Llewelyn. Llewelyn Moss: Well, then I'll tell her myself Fargo: "Did he have any distinguishing marks?" "He wasn't circumcised."

For my money, their best scene ever was in Blood Simple when M Emmet Walsh was sweating like a banshee at the table, with the minimal light and every little sound amplified. And I would also say his performance was the best of all the amazing performances in Coen Brothers films, even better than Frances McDormand in Fargo and Jeff Bridges in The Big Lebowski.

I don't know if any scene tops the coin toss, but the coin has no say and the final scene come close. Miller's Crossing is easy, but "always put one in the brain" is a solid contender too. Strange pick for Fargo, it's hard to go wrong with any scene there, but I'd have gone with "and it's a beautiful day". Lebowski is another tough one, mark it zero is a winner, Jackie Treehorn, "the bums lost", and "this is what happens!' also do it. The shaving scene in Man who wasn't there also stands out but it's been a while, and the Killing Floor Blues scene in O'Brother always gets me. This was a fun watch. I had the privilege of working on one of these, unfortunately it was Lady Killers. The dailies were hilarious, the football POV and the n bomb scene had a room full of us dying. It just didn't work when it all came together.

There are a number of great scenes here, most of which are arguable as "best", but the one that really stands out as not even close is Burn After Reading, in which the best scene of the entire film is the last one with J. K. Simmons and David Rasche. It's one of the funniest scenes ever put to film, way beyond even the considerable history of the Coens. But I understand you not wanting to include spoilers.

Good choices. I have my own favorites but you chose well. I'd rank some of the films a bit differently but it's just matter of preference. Your listing is reasonable. A Serious Man and True Grit rate higher. Oh Brother and Raising Arizona rate lower. I liked these two well enough on first viewing but they were a bit too thin in the story. But the acting was good.
@TheSidewaySociety
@TheSidewaySociety Ай бұрын
thank you! i think that's great. ultimately most of their movies are fantastic and that makes them so very hard to rank. i recognize that i'm holding quite a bit of nostalgia for Raising Arizona, but what can I say i'm human. we like what we like. i've been slammed by other ppl for not putting No Country higher, but it's just not as rewatchable to me as the character studies that are Fargo and Inside Llewyn Davis. i'm endlessly fascinated by how people rank the movies of directors for whom they've seen the entire body of work!

Wheezy Joe’s death was by far and away the best scene from Intolerable Cruelty. Been watching the Coen Brothers’ films since taking a chance on Blood Simple a few months before Raising Arizona came out, and Cruelty was by far the weakest film they’d released, at that point.
