  12. True, Barton is at fault for his character and ego and his own descent, but the film is still very much a slam against the commodification of art and writing in terms of its depiction of Hollywood and its figures. There is a sense of frustration in the way the system is run that does eat into Barton and play into his own self-destruction. And there's something that I empathize with seeing how Barton, despite his own wrongdoing, is further exacberated by people who don't get or understand the craft. But of course, Barton Fink as a film is very much an "eyes of the beholder" text that your interpretation is for sure valid and there's plenty of nuance in both of our statements.
  13. #8 Burn After Reading 135 points, 22 lists "I have a drinking problem? Fuck you, Peck, you're a Mormon. Compared to you we ALL have a drinking problem!" #1 placements: 1 #3 placements: 1 Top 5 placements: 5 Box Office: $60.3M DOM, $163.7M WW Rotten Tomatoes: 78% Metacritic: 63 Awards: 3 BAFTA nominations, 1 Critics' Choice Award nomination, 2 Golden Globe Award nominations, 1 WGA Award nomination Its Legacy: One of the highest-grossing films made by the Coens. The first Coens film not to have Roger Deakins as DP since Miller's Crossing. The first original screenplay written by Joel and Ethan since The Man Who Wasn't There. Opened the 2008 Venice Film Festival. Considered one of the best films of the year by the National Board of Review. Gave J. K. Simmons a paycheck. Commentary: This is up there as one of the most densely-packed stories from the two brothers. Starting from a basic “what if CIA documents were given to some gym employees”, we get to enjoy a piece that is hilarious, shocking, full of twists, and ends on some of the greatest final lines ever. The brothers called this a “Tony Scott/Jason Bourne movie without the explosions” and it’s easy to see the influences from those sources here, while also still having the dark comedy and absurd violence we love from the duo. There’s also of course the usual Coen collaborators in Clooney and McDormand, but it’s also all anchored by an expert and hilarious performance from Brad Pitt. Which...okay, I guess I shouldn’t praise him too much these days, since he’s now outed himself as a terrible person, but I will say this role shows how he is at his best in comedic, Looney Tunes-style escapades.
