Jim*Tod
Supporting Actor
It is lots of fun if not quite as pointed as some of the other Coen films.... It does remind me most of my favorite of their films, THE HUDSUCKER PROXY, with its stunning and witty period detail and costuming.... Tilda Swinton's hats alone are worth the price of admission. Two extremely well staged musical numbers makes me wish the brothers would tackle a full on musical. As other posts have indicated the more you know about Hollywood, the funnier it will be. The time frame is somewhat unclear.... somewhere in the early 50's where there is VistaVision and Carmen Miranda is still a star? I tend to think anyone in this forum would enjoy this film.
