Talk:Coen brothers

Man Who Wasn't There reception
Critics on The Man Who Wasn't There: IIRC Ebert and Maltin both liked it a great deal until the curve at the end, then felt cheated. Many commented about how there was less perceived condescension in this film than in the Coens' others. I should start collecting these trivia tidbits so I can add them in less of a vague & unattributed way, without having to do research. --KQ 18:57 Dec 14, 2002 (UTC)

Interesting article, but the flow is confusing. Might be better to make the descriptions of scenes stand out from the regular text in some way. &mdash;Mulad, May 30, 2003


 * Great stuff, but somehow I feel that the only reason I understood all of the article, esp. the scene references, was because I'd seen (almost) all of the movies. - Rbs 07:28, 2004 Feb 14 (UTC)

Plot Revelation
Realize that one shouldn't read a bio on filmmakers without expecting to be exposed to some storylines, but the passage under 'Violence': "The Ladykillers all of the main characters die in an attempt to dispose of a body" seems to be overly informative. Please review and amend if you agree.
 * (would deem this revelation totally acceptable had I directed myself to the movie itself, and not the filmmakers)

directing distinctions section
Half the entire section is just listing other filmmakers who tied one of their distinctions. Why? Also that section isn't even directly about "directing distinctions" since it's about receiving a number of nominations, most of which aren't for directing.
