There is a feature of the Loser books written by the Coen brothers. Whether they are raising Arizona, murdering Green Toe or Barton Funk, the character arcs of these loser protagonists are basically very small, and the difficulties and revelations in the film almost only blow but not inspire the protagonist. . The film's protagonist Llewyn Davis is naturally the same. Llewyn is a typical loser of literature and art. He thinks he has a passion for art, but in fact he has no plans and self-discipline for himself. He sleeps at other people's houses and sleeps with other people's girlfriends. He lacks the support of family and friends. He is clumsy and awkward. Sloppy, with an anti-strike level of numbness, he turned his head and wanted to run away after hearing someone say you can't make enough money. With so many shortcomings, the Coen brothers only describe and do not comment. You can hardly see Kurosawa Akira or Yang Dechang's sermons poking your nose in their films. It is said that this is a kind of rottenness of the Coen brothers, because they obviously do not have the kind of enthusiasm of Hei Tianwang or Master Yang. The attitude of the two Kochi brothers is more like they believe that most diaosi will never be enlightened in their lifetime, and they are even more reluctant to do it for the sake of it. To reason with these losers and destroy the style of their own stories, so only leave the mystery to those who are destined. To say that this is the mercy of the Coen brothers is because it is difficult for Hollywood to have another director who is willing to let the diaosi be cruel and real in their films.
