The oft-maligned prelude to No Country, Joel and Ethan's grudging remake of the Alec Guinness/Peter Sellers comedy classic The Ladykillers is...wait for it...funnier than you think it is. Abe and Michael unpack it's undeniable flaws, learn a lot about the Coens in the process, and also highlight some truly hilarious Coen Moments you missed if you overlooked this one.
J.K. Simmons as you've never seen him before, Tom Hanks as you've never seen him before, and Stephen Root exactly as you've seen him in every other Coen Brothers movie! What's not to kind of like?

Music by Abe Epperson.
