The Coen Brothers made a lot of great flicks, but I think this is my favorite one. George Clooney is mostly known for starring in drama roles, but sometimes he likes to do a comedy film. When he does a comedy film, he will do a good job at it. I thought Clooney was real funny in this movie.

It tells the story of Everett Ulysses McGill, who escapes from a chain gang along with his friends, Delmar and Pete. The film is taken place in the 1930’s, and was based on Homer’s “Odyssey”. Everett wants to go back home so he can seek the treasure that maybe there but of course, they meet a bunch of strange people along the way, including the KKK, in which, they want to stop them from getting that treasure.

The reason this movie works perfectly ’cause the film was shot beautifully, the acting was well done by everybody. It was funny, and enjoyable. Lots of memorable scenes and funny catchphrases. Most importantly of all, it was the music. Lots of folk music being played throughout the film, and these are songs that you can sing all day yourself, most notably, songs such as “I’m a Man of Constant Sorrow”, “I’ll Fly Away”, “Go To Sleep Little Baby”, etc.

Yes, this is another one of those movies I would never get tired of watching. “I Don’t Want Fop, I’m a Dapper Dan Man”.
