It's officially the first Coen brothers movie I DIDN'T like. It felt scattered in terms of what it was supposed to be about, and at no point could I predict how a character would respond to an event, and then before I knew it, it was over. I kept waiting for the moment of understanding, but it never came. I wasn't sure the movie knew what it wanted to be. Though the characters and plot set up were fantastically Coen, the movie as a whole kind of threw me off. <abbr><em>Claire’s last blog post..<a href="http://clairedalton.blogspot.com/2009/02/perfect-brief.html" rel="nofollow">The "Perfect" Brief</a></abbr></em> I actually just saw Barton Fink for the first time about two weeks ago.
