Blood Simple
Just saw this yesterday. ****ing amazing.

It's the Coen brothers' first movie, made back in 1984.

It's about a guy, whose wife is cheating on him with his employee. So, the guy hires a private investigator, and eventually hires him to kill them. Then the entire story is crazy. Bunch of twists.

The movie is basically a more disturbing version of Fargo.

The directing and cinematography is amazing. The shots look so good.

So yeah, watch it.

10/10

it's one of those movies that you have to see multiple times to fully "get it" or something. the first 2 times i saw it i was like "wtf was that", and then the 3rd time it was like "OHHHH okay this rules". it's probably the best film they've made.

I dunno. Every other Coens movie I've seen has been like that, but not this one, for some reason.

I think it was an edited version though, because it was the restored DVD version. At the beginning, the guy was like "fully restored, with the boring parts cut out, and some good parts added".

Never actually seen it, but the script is incredibly well-written.

Sorry for bumping an old topic but I finally managed to see this movie. Wow, the Coen brothers are simply amazing, I can't comprehend how unbelievable awesome they are. When this movie was over I had like that same feeling after I watched Reservoir Dogs for the first time.
