movie review - O Brother where art thou?

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Sydney, 2001.01.04

I was really stunned by how much I liked this movie. It strikes a perfect note, somehow. I've always enjoyed the Coen brothers' stuff (if not Clooney's), and I'd say this one is their best yet. I was drawn into this one hook, line, and sinker.

Now I have to read Ulysees.

Strongly recommended.
