The old movies of the Coen brothers are suitable to pass the time during the weekends.
The editing of the scenes in the opening movie is excellent. From the grim Reaper statue to the garbage tug passing the bridge, to the sleeping police station in the afternoon, three important scenes in the movie hint at the ending at the beginning.
An old American black lady lived with a cat after her husband died. One day she hired a gentleman doctoral professor. She was full of poetry in her every move. He introduced that he had a band group that wanted to practice together, so The old lady happily borrowed the basement, unexpectedly they planned to steal the casino vault from the basement.
Unlike most of the robbery movies, the heroic unity of high-tech teams with superior intelligence and superior force, this movie is more like a combination of Xiaomi XL Hammers put together by doctors and crooks. The length of the movie is mainly focused on the preparations that are full of errors at the beginning and the ending of how to sell the stolen goods. The theft process in the middle is simply unremarkable, which constitutes a very traditional comedy effect.
And the kind-hearted and slow-acting black old lady and this group of sneaky crimes also formed a comic effect. On the one hand, singing hymns reverently, on the other hand insulting each other; on the one hand, the quietness of old life, on the other hand, the fierceness of the crime process, and in the middle is the doctor mobilizing all the brain cells and maneuvering gestures to whitewash the peace.
It's a pity that the movement was too big and it was discovered by the old lady, so how to get rid of the old lady became a new proposition. And at the end is a series of dominoes. The draw draws a fight, the fight leads to infighting, the infighting leads to fleeing, and the fleeing leads to chasing and killing, which leads to complaints. In the end, the doctor’s friends are thrown into the garbage ship one by one, and he also accepts The trial of fate.
There are a lot of details in the movie. The black music that plays from time to time should be the same as the men who try to get revenge with these tossing men, and the ringing of the old lady's radio is the final chapter of fate.
