probably the darkest and most most depressing Cohen Bros film ever, and that is saying a lot. I liked it but I still think they peaked with The Big Lebowski.

s-t: the youtube link worked also below the equator, gracias!! :lol: Loved Turturro´s face, the fire-golden-blue crossroads´s photography and the beautiful song!. I´ll tell you when I see the film! :wink:

brian: hola!. I´m not a big specialist in Cohen brothers films, I saw the Big Lebowski some time ago on tv, but I don´t remember it well, I don´t know why..!. By the way, can you explain your photo..? Just curious! :)

Hi Arcadia,
the photo is of when I was in Australia in June, I went to Greenough Wildlife and got a chance to pet dingos, that is one of them jumping on me as a photo is been taken.

btw Big Lebowski is worth a re watch,
other Coen brothers worth checking out are Millers Crossing and Barton Fink, John Turturro is brilliant in it.
"From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing"
