88. The Coen Brothers Brothers: Miller's Crossing
Added 2018-07-12 00:58:24 +0000 UTCIt's a hard-boiled mobster noir bromance from the Coen Brothers! What's not to like? Abe Epperson and Michael Swaim drag you into the metaphorical woods to make you beg for your life, but in a good way, as they delve into the Coens' third masterpiece.

Jesus I can’t believe it’s been nearly 7 years. Been a fan since the pandemic, and I’ve held off listening to this until I finally watched. Great analysis as usual, just adding so much to appreciate about the film.
