Thank you so much for being here! I truly appreciate all of your support!
To the people on patreon, thank you all incredibly much, I´m excited to watch many more movies and tv-shows with you all! 💕✨
As a TH-cam star you can appreciate this parody of the "Man of Sorrow" song by your fellow TH-camr! th-cam.com/video/Ov5vSP5Ukc8/w-d-xo.html

Kamilla: "Are they just carrying ice?"
Yes, before the widespread use of refrigerators, most homes had "ice boxes" for storing their perishable food. You literally bought a block of ice from the "icehouse" to put it in your ice box. Large blocks like those boys were carrying would last for at least five days depending upon the insulation of the ice box and the weather before you had to buy another block.
@edd That's a piece of history. Is it a family heirloom?
@eddVery cool! (pun intended)👍😄
This movie is basically a retelling of Homer's "The Odyssey" which pretty much explains all of the more surreal elements of the film.
I remember when this came out in 2000. I was only 13 then, but even at that age I knew it looked retarded so I didn’t see it lol
Also some elements from The Wizard of Oz.
And a few other pop culture & historical references as well (Robert Johnson, Baby Face Nelson). It's just a lot of fun! I love them sneaking into the venue with their old men disguises just like Odysseus sneaks back into his own home and mingles with the suitors disguised as an old man, LOL. 😄
@BattleAngelFan it also only just occurred to me that John Goodman's character is the Cyclopse.
I'm always surprised that people miss that. It says it explicitly in the opening credits. Of course, it's a faithful adaption of the Odyssey the same way Fargo was a true story, but still, they literally tell you.
"Tommy sold his soul to the Devil, Pete and Delmar have been saved. Apparently I'm the only one who remains unaffiliated."🤣🤣
One of my favorite lines from the film!
One of the Coen brothers best. One of my favorite lines: “This place is a geographic oddity, two weeks from everywhere.”
Yes, and The Big Lebowski is Alice in Wonderland, so what!?
"Of course it's Pete, just look at him."
dialogs great in this movie
@Schaden Freude 20 minutes? You must be passing through a timewarp, it's at least an hour. Like Rhode Island, despite being drastically larger. The 49th and 48th best states in the Union, respectively.
@@chadstephens88 what does that have to do with the price of tea in China
I can't help it. The song You are my sunshine makes me cry. The reason why is because that song was the very last thing my dad heard the day he died. My sister sang it into his ear. When she was done, a tear rolled down my dad's cheek. Then he took his last breath and died.
Clooney: How many times do you want me to say "Damn we're in a tight spot" in this movie?
Coens: Yes
"My hair!"
This is one of those rare films where there were no miscasts. All the actors were perfect in their roles., making every character a joy to watch.
The guitartist that accompanies Clooney and co., is based on Robert Johnson. Johnson was a legendary blues musician who claimed he sold his soul to the Devil to learn to play.
Truth be told, the legend of selling his soul at the crossroads was Tommy Johnson, who used to boast openly about it. Later blues 'researchers' confused the names and stories of the two men, and the legend got connected to Robert. Ironic, I'd say. Tommy sells his soul, and Robert gets the credit and fame, but only decades after his death. Last laugh from the devil on Tommy!
Robert had a brother named Tommy also a guitarist
@@pedrolopez8057 but the Tommy Johnson portrayed in the film is unreated to and predates Robert
Actually there was a Tommy Johnson who claimed the same thing years before Robert.
@@pedrolopez8057 he wasn't his brother but he did exist.
My favorite is how George Clooney says "we're in a tight spot" multiple times in the barns. But when he wakes up he says "watch my hair".
Great movie. This is the film that revived bluegrass music. I had to sing "Man of Constant Sorrows" basically by myself for a high school choir pop show. Most of my classmates believe that I grew up singing these songs (which is partially true).
The story is a retelling of Homer's Odyssey, but set in Mississippi during the Great Depression. Everett is Odysseus (Ulysses is the Latin name for Odysseus), his wife Penny is Penelope, Vernon T. Waldrip is a composite of the suitors, Daniel "Big Dan" Teague is Polyphemus the Cyclops, Governor O'Daniel's first name is Menelaus and he is Zeus (there was a Wilbert Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel, but he was Governor of Texas from 1939-1941 before becoming Senator for the rest of the 1940s), and Sheriff Cooley is Poseidon. The sirens are self-explanatory.
During the Great Depression, bank robbers were viewed as Robin Hood types (ex. Bonnie and Clyde). No one sympathized with the banks who were foreclosing everything and taking everyone's family farms. Lester J. Gillis a.k.a. George "Baby Face" Nelson was real and died in 1934 from gunshot wounds inflicted from battling the FBI.
Given that all 7 of Everett's children are daughters, aside from Pater familius, he should also bear the title of Abu El Banat, which is Arabic for "father of daughters."
Mississippi-home to the best and worst of the South.
I remember when this came out in 2000, I was 13 at the time. Even at that age it looked retarded so I didn’t see it lol 😂
Revived bluegrass music? It never went anywhere, always been right here
You forgot to mention the Robert Johson/crossroads part also.
Tim Blake nelson , singing “ in the jailhouse now “ is superb
"Though the Road may Wind,
Yea ye Hearts grow Weary,
Still shall ye follow the Way,
Even unto your Salvation."
The soundtrack to this movie won even more awards than the film itself. My late dad was a great fan of both country music and deadpan comedies, so getting him the DVD/CD boxset of this for Christmas decades ago was a great moment. And this was another excuse to enjoy the movie and remember him again - thanks for reacting to it!
The guy that plays the record producer in the little shack is Stephen Root. He's a character actor in many films and is so good. He's also Milton Waddams in Office Space. Very versatile actor. Also, when he gives them $10 each that is about the equivalent in 1935 US to today of $200 or so.
I'll tell you what - if you go on Spotify or wherever else and listen to the soundtrack album, you're guaranteed a good time. It's a fantastic album and, at least in my case, a gateway into old-time music.
One of the bands used in the soundtrack including Clooney's voice in the radio station was Allison Krauss and Union Station. She's the lead singer as well as the fiddler. The singer was Dan Tyminsky for that song. Check out their live performances on TH-cam.
Tyminski’s story of telling his wife about this recording opportunity is hilarious. The tl;dr version was that she said, (paraphrased) “Your voice coming out of George Clooney’s face? Yes, please!”
My favorite lines -
Delmar: "Oh, son. For _that_ ya traded yer everlastin' _soul?"_
Tommy: "Well I wasn't _usin'_ it."
The parallels to "The Odyssey" are pretty funny in this film. The very first (besides Clooney's character being named Ulysses obviously) is the old blind black man on the railway cart who corresponds to the blind seer Tiresias in The Odyssey. From there they just go on and on and on (most of which I'm probably missing). So well done.
Throw in John Goodman's one-eyed thug, "Big Dan," as the cyclops! Ulysses, a renowned WARRIOR in "The Odyssey," can't protect himself in a five-and-dime fist-fight in "O Brother"! Some switcheroos between the classic tale and the movie, like Penelope, Odysseus' wife, was devious in avoidance of multiple suitors since the hero had been away from Greece for years 'n' years; in "O, Brother," Ulysses' wife was "unconstant," got engaged to the fellow Mr. McGill fought in the "Woolsworth."
Fun fact about this film. Due to the large crowd stage scene near the end being filmed in Vicksburg, MS, My grandparents were extras in that scene. My uncle was also an extra as part of the chain gang.
If anyone wants to know where to look, there is a moment where they are right in the camera. It’s the part were everyone is clapping. 6 people are focused on in the frame. The two people in the center are doing the Do Si Do and two people on the left and right sides are clapping. Those two on the left are my grandparents.
th-cam.com/video/VVmXSnyLroM/w-d-xo.html 4:08 is the timestamp of the moment in this link. To point them out more. My grandmother is wearing a hat and in pink, my granddad is in a black suit.
Such a solid Musical Comedy.
Feels like it never really got the attention it deserved.
Might feel that way now, but it was nominated for numerous awards back then and was so highly quotable that sportscasters and pop culture people of the time used phrases from this for nearly a decade after.
This movie received ALL THE ATTENTION back in 2000, winning Album of the Year and then some! Highest grossing soundtrack album!
I reiterate: what kids today don’t get is this: we used to go to the movies as a public and enjoy life as such. This movie was one of the biggest parts of THE zeitgeist, and we all felt the waves. Eventually music will go back to its roots and all this trap music bullshit and money-makin tiktok music will shampoo the crotch of old-times music because, for good or ill, this music is fundamentally and historically American, just like baseball and rock and roll and hamburgers. The current music is a sad, sad reproduction of what American music can should be: Creative, Literate and Worthy. Yes, how about that: Worthy.
The song Man of Constant Sorrow was a huge hit when it came out. The soundtrack reached #1 on the Billboard 200 chart and surprised everyone when it won the Album of the Year Grammy in 2002, beating out artists such as Bob Dylan and U2.
The title comes from a 1941 comedy film directed by Preston Sturges called "Sullivan's Travels" in which a pretentious depression era movie director named Sullivan decides that light entertainment movies have no meaning or value and wants to make a "socially relevant message" movie called "O Brother Where Art Thou." He poses as a vagabond and goes on the road to get some "real world experience" to help him in making his message movie, but interacting with real people in the real world makes him realizes that people need the escapism of light entertainment movies to lift their spirits so they can get through the hard times of the Great Depression. I recall the movie getting only lukewarm reviews because it is sentimental simplistic, but I found it very enjoyable, and I thought Joel McCrea and Veronica Lake were very appealing as the lead characters.
I've recommended Sullivan's Travels to several reactors. Most recently one that watched L.A. Confidential.... so she could get an example of Veronica Lake ;-)
@@gregall2178 I'll keep my fingers crossed.
I just checked and found that "Sullivan's Travels" has quite a high rating of sites like RT and IMDB. It seems like a lot of movies that were underappreciated when I was young have found their audience.
Don’t you dare be mean to my boy Delmar, he’s the goat. Also “my hair” is such a iconic line from this movie lol.
As well as being a depression era re-telling of the Odyssey, the soundtrack of this movie was a huge success a won the Grammy for album of the year.
This is a great movie. The soundtrack is awesome.
Tommy is played by Chris Thomas King, a fantastic blues musician.
That recording of the chain gang at the beginning is a real recording of a chain gang from the 1940s.
This movie has the most fantastic soundtrack.
The boys carrying blocks of ice was a real thing years ago.
My grandfather delivered blocks of ice to people on a route with his horse and wagon every day so people could keep their ice box cold. People without enough money for delivery would just walk to the ice plant and buy a block and carry it home.
Eventually my grandfather bought the ice plant and still had it running when I was a kid even though nobody had an ice box by then and everybody had a refrigerator.
People still needed bags and blocks of ice for camping and fishing trips and such.
The Coen Brothers have said that they basically built the film around the music. The soundtrack album won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 2002, and has since sold nearly 9 million copies. It's one of the best uses of music in a film ever.
best part about watching your reaction to this awesome movie is that we got to see that beautiful smile almost the entire movie
The Coen brothers are a rabbit hole well worth falling into. I can't think of a single movie of theirs that isn't at least well above average. My personal favorite is No Country for Old Men. Don't watch that one when you need something uplifting. Uplifting would be The Big Lebowski, Raising Arizona, maybe The Ladykillers. Definitely this one, O Brother Where Art Thou. The rest are a bit on the heavy side, though not necessarily all dark, if that makes sense. But really well made and meaningful, in my opinion.
Not so uplifting, but "Miller's Crossing" is my personal favorite.
Delmar is my favorite character!
Tim did such a great job.
George “Babyface” Nelson was a real Bankrobberr
If you like that this movie is based on “The Odyssey”, note that the 70s street gang classic “The Warriors” is even more obviously based on Xenophon’s “Anabasis” (aka The Persian Expedition).
AHHH Kamilla, SO few reactions on youtube to THIS, one of my all time favorite films and one of the Coen Brothers finest creations. The story, the cast, the acting and THE SOUNDTRACK are fantastic. I watched it for the first time maybe 20 years ago and to this day, I still listen to the songs off the soundtrack. The Peasall Sisters, who sang for the wharvey gals, went on to release 2 albums and continued performing in public till 2011.
George Nelson (AKA Babyface Nelson) was bipolar in real life. The movie shows his highs and lows and tries to get across that he was bipolar.
As always, loved your reaction. In my own opinion this is Clooney's best work and casting for this movie is exceptional. Quite an accomplishment to make a light hearted movie with the subject matters touched upon in this movie.
My grandmother used to love watching this movie and singing some of the songs from her childhood
My dad, as a teen, ran away from military HS, to follow his girlfriend who had moved to California. He got there via freight cars ;-) Some of my relatives lived like that, back in the day, before WWII. The folks in white, are part of a river baptism of course. One of my grandfathers was a radio pioneer, sold baby chicks by mail-order for folks to raise, eat eggs and meat ... and had a on-air fortune teller, and featured up and coming country-western stars ;-) Another grandfather was witness, from across the street, to the local sheriff killing a bank robber. The character who came along in the car, that is Baby Face Nelson, famous bank robber and associate of John Dillinger. My HS physics teacher, saw him pass thru in his car, when he was a boy, in his little mining town (back roads see). Original gang marks, were by hoboes, who marked houses where the housewife would leave out food for their benefit. Another grandfather was Klan ... that was a real thing ;-( The wet finale was based anachronistically on the Great Mississippi flood of 1927.
The Coen Brothers have the keenest ears for the English language of any filmmakers today, and it comes out in the beautiful writing of "O Brother": their love of accent, dialect, and vocabulary and how it reveals character. Their films are a delight to listen to. Native English speakers benefit most and I'm afraid you miss this since English is your third language, despite your obvious fluency. (Jag ar Svensk-Amerikaner och jag sympathiser med inte hinna detaljer av utlandskfilmer.) Check out "Miller's Crossing" and "Fargo," where their use of language is also a delight.
The film is a re-telling of the Odyssey, but the cleverest of the Greek heroes of the Trojan War is replaced by a dimwitted trio who get kicked around at every turn.
George "Baby Face" Nelson was one of the most notorious bank robbers in U.S. history. He was a tiny man who was raped in prison and on his release, he swore to never be captured alive. I'm not sure if he was manic-depressive (bipolar) as he's portrayed in the film. The Coen Brothers change this detail, and in fact Nelson holds the record for killing more FBI agents than any man in history. He killed three "G-Men" in two separate shootouts, and was gunned down and not taken prisoner, true to his word.
The Democratic Party was almost taken over by the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan at the 1924 Democratic National Convention, at Madison Square Garden, New York. The KKKK continued to be a power in the South. There were two wings to the Democratic Party in the 1920s and Thirties: the corrupt establishment versus the racist populists. Pres. Harry Truman was a populist ex-Klansman. Among his other accomplishments, President Franklin Roosevelt fostered a young, liberal wing of the Party which gradually took power from the Klansmen, pushing them into the background in the 1960s. Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd was the Klan leader in West Virginia in the 1950s and remained the seniormost Democratic senator until his death in 2010 -- the last Democratic Party klansman. The film touches on this contest between corrupt professional politicians and racist politicians within the Democratic Party.
You left out the fact that Byrd lost interest in KKK, and had ceased participation in it before the 1960s, eventually renouncing the group, and proclaiming his role in it, as well as harboring a racist mentality as being the greatest mistake of his life. Indeed, he had been a racist and klansman, but he turned himself around and got out, and warned others to not get involved with such groups. Mistakes like that can’t necessarily be undone, but they can be discontinued. Some who were like him, but did not reform their old ways… well, they found themselves more welcome in a different party.
This film is an absolute masterpiece.
This is one of my favourite movies ever. This movie helped raise me to the man I am.
Shoutout to my guy Andrew.
25:32 "You was hit by a twain." 😇 Adorable!
Thank you Kamilla😁😁😁👍👍👍this is my second favorite comedy of all time.and you did a wonderful job figuring out southern culture of the 1930's.my dads family was from the deep south originally so I grew up around those kind of folks.you did great kiddo😁😁😁♥️♥️♥️
Penny: I've spoken my piece and counted to three.
Ulysses: She counted to three. Goddamnit!
Such a pretty smile. Great movie, glad you enjoyed.
Oh Kamilla! So happy you got to do this. I was prepared to enjoy this movie and then read the credits and it said it was based on the odyssey. I was hooked. I was looking for references. The oracle, Penny getting married. Sirens. Menelaus. Ulysses. Homer. Cyclops. Soooo wonderful! There are at least two copies in my DVD collection. "I'm fixin' to R-U-N-N-O-F-T " so many quotable quotes. Too bad George can't sing. The Tennessee Valley Authority " TVA" really did flood areas for hydroelectric power. Love the yellow dusty look of the movie. Instead of the luscious green of the landscape. And the music? Wow! Really glad we got to share some smiles.
I've seen this movie so many times since I saw it in the theater. I'm sure I'll keep watching it for many more years too.
The old man singin the Acapella song, Oh Death, is an American legend! And the Angel Song, at the end! Ralph Stanley, I believe...
I love this movie, The Coen Brothers are great. They have an amazing catalogue of films.
When Homer Stokes was taken out buy the crowd, he was literally, "ran out on a rail" as the southern saying goes.
20:58. It’s not a toad in the film, it’s a leopard frog, and when I was a kid finding them, we called the “red legged frogs”, cuz underneath, theirs legs are bright red!
Yes, they were carrying ice. Imagine, before refrigerators and freezers were available, ice was collected in colder areas during the winter from frozen lakes. They stored them in sheds/barns insulated with hay. It would last all year even in the hot summers in the southern US. Wanted some ice? You'd just go to your block that you have stored and just chip a few pieces off for your beverage. :) People really do take for granted what technology has been able to give to us now days. Old homes would also have basements that had a food storage area that was a deep hole in the basement. The dirt stays much cooler than the surface during the summer. You should read into it. It's fascinating how these people used to survive in harsh climates. In fact, most of the southern US wouldn't be near as populated today if it weren't for air conditioning.
The soundtrack to this movie is one of the best soundtracks.
so much fun watching you and other youtubers react to movies I enjoy. great channel. keep up the great work.
WELCOME BACK, PRINCESS!!!!! We'all MISSED YOU!!!!! 🥲🥲🥲
THANKYOUMANNYYY
@@Centane Your quite welcome, dear.
Charles During was one of the few survivors of the Nazi SS Malmedy massacre during the WWII Battle of the Bulge. He played Pappy O'Daniel.
That’s my favorite movie and I so enjoyed watching it with you! You’re really good at this and you have an outstanding edit 🙂
I think another movie you’d love is “Life” 1999 Film with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. Another prison film, and American south movie
The bank robber George Nelson in the movie is a real person and went by “Babyface Nelson”. He is a very famous and well known American outlaw.
Kamilla: "Oh...they're going to catch a train."
Me: Well...not quite.
Awesome movie 🎥👍🤣😎🍿
Still to this day it's such a good movie, I actually grew up in the small community of Eudora MS that sits next too arkabutla lake. The valley they flooded at the end of the movie. Always thought it was cool to see this in this movie.
“But Pappy, they’s integrated!” 😂
Tommy Johnson is based on the Robert Johnson and his crossroads deal with the devil. Robert Johnson was one of the greatest blues performer of the 1930s.
Another flawless reaction to a great great film. I saw this one in theaters multiple times. Ralph Stanley, who sings O death in the movie was a family friend. His son, Ralph Stanley II comes over plays music with my family every few months.
Centaine, the sound track for this film is exceptional, all the songs are very old and all had fame in there day but "Man of constant sorrow" is over 100yrs old and if you make time the best recording I have ever heard is by Homefree, an accupella group that are amazing and we'll worth the time.
I really enjoyed your great reaction. That was like I was watching this masterpiece movie with a agood friend. Thanks a lot!
If you love the music you should really take a look at how revolutionary those little recording operations were when it comes to music in general. historically these isolated communities had a deep and Rich musical tradition that evolved on their own. most families had music that they made themselves and these little operations would set up and record these family songs. many would be put up on the radio if they were good. which inspired our modern day music that we have now. a lot of people don't understand how revolutionary those recording stations were when it comes to modern music. influenced pop, rock and roll, jazz, blues, Even EDM. Modern artist routinely sample from a lot of these older recordings. It's amazing how one artist is inspired by another and then by another and then by another Most of whom have no idea of the original inspiration for the tune. It's such an interesting topic. There's even documentaries on the subject and I think movie has it on their Special features on certain additions
your joy brings me joy!
The soundtrack is pretty good and relaxing. I always put it on if I’m sitting at a bonfire.
Other coen movies i recommend are
Fargo (1996), The Big Lebowski (1998), No Country For Old Men (2007), Millers Crossing (1990), Blood Simple (1984). Raising Arizona (1987) , Barton Fink (1991)
The kids carrying the ice are how they used to keep "refrigerators" cool back in the day.
Beautiful young miss. Do not apologize for you subtitles or you pronunciations. As you pointed out, you speak THREE languages English not being your native tongue. As for this movie, it is one of my wife's favorites. After it came out, there was a concert tour of the music from it. That was a great show of Bluegrass music.
Man of constant sorrow is a very old old song done many times. This version the Soggy Bottom boys are actually Dan Tyminski, Ron Block & Barry Bales of Alison Krauss & Union Station an American bluegrass band. Dan Tyminski does the lead vocals and there is a video of him explaining to his wife about voice over of the song as George Clooney apparently doesn't have a singing voice. Look it up you'll enjoy it
Love the Cohen brothers! I still like their first movie best...a movie that only existed as a trailer! They showed the trailer at a movie festival, with no actors, and miraculously got financial backing, to shoot it! Blood Simple!
The music is what make the movie. . . shame we can't hear more of it, but I understand YT's restrictions. The summer this came out, Alison Krause and Union Station went on tour with a number of other artists, in the "Down From the Mountain" tour. I saw it at Wolf Trap Farm Park (outdoors): almost a spiritual experience. Alison Krause has the voice of an angel!
One of the best movies ever…:) kudos to whoever requested this..:)
Try "The Ladykillers" for another feel-good comedy, starring Tom Hanks.
You might also enjoy the original 1950s version of The Ladykillers.
Lester Joseph Gillis (December 6, 1908 - November 27, 1934), also known as George Nelson and Baby Face Nelson, was an American bank robber who became a criminal partner of John Dillinger, when he helped Dillinger escape from prison, in Crown Point, Indiana. Later, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced Nelson and the remaining gang of bank robbers were collectively "Public Enemy Number One."
The "Baby Face Nelson" nickname derived from Gillis being a short man with a youthful appearance; however, in the professional realm, Gillis's fellow criminals addressed him as "Jimmy". A violent bank robber, Lester Joseph Gillis killed more agents of the FBI than has any other criminal. FBI agents fatally wounded and killed Baby Face Nelson in the Battle of Barrington (27 November 1934), fought in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois
I’m glad that was the movie you needed
That sheriff is the devil the guy with that guitar was talking about.
I used to listen to this movie's sountrack three four times a week back in the day. I imagine those days are about to come back
Fun one, Kamilla! It was vey sweet, wasn't it? One of my favorites. 😊
I just love this movie! Must have watched it a dozen times! Glad you liked it too! 🙂
Great movie. Glad it is what you needed. Be happy. Watch it again, you will pick up a lot more.
I don’t know if anyone told you but the two boys carting the block of ice were taking home. Before everyone had electricity people would have to get big blocks of ice for the refrigerator. Hence the term icebox
Tbe multitude of references to Homer's epic poem are really cool... as mentioned elsewhere, the blind Seer; additionally, John Goodman's Cyclops and dangerous Sirens beguiling them from the river... If you know the Odyssey, you can pick out most of them with ease.
Absolutely wonderful example of top-notch filmmaking. 😏
One of my favorite movies and one of the best soundtracks.
It gave me great joy to watch you react to this movie. Thank you. P.S. There is always a catch.
Great reaction as usual, you had me 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I love the comment "Delmar has been saved"
Fantastic as always! Your reactions are insightful and adorable ❤
Nice reactions to O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Kamilla!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽That is definitely one of the most unusual comedies I have seen. The music is very enjoyable in the film.
Brilliant retelling of the Odyssey with the tribulations of Odysseus trying to get back to his wife after the Trojan War set in the depression era Southern US which has it's own mysticism and horrors such as KKK rituals, the Faustian legend of Delta Blues master Robert Johnson selling his soul to the devil for his guitar skills, southern chain gangs, sheriff with bloodhounds, and overarching influence of religion. The hangman was similar to Poseidon who tormented Odysseus on his voyage home, the singing women were the mermaids/sirens who enchanted the sailors to their death with song, Big John Teague was the cyclops, the gopher eating and baptismal scene was reminiscent of the lotus eaters. All set to the Delta Blues, early Bluegrass, Gospel, and Hobo blues. George Baby Face Nelson was a real depression era bank robber and the Tennessee Valley Authority built damns along the Mississippi river to provide electricity to rural farmers in the US South. Odysseus' wife Penelope and their son tried to fight off suitors after everyone assumed Odysseus was dead, here she plans to remarry because she needs help raising 7 daughters during the depression.
The song oh death is by Dr Ralph Stanley a bluegrass singer.
All time classic as far as I'm concerned. Very under rated comedy. "Of course its Pete ...look at him" 😄. Another comedy I think was under rated was- Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
29:40 oh no they all have vocals 😂😂
Loved your reactions on this!! This movie inspired a lot of new artist to turn to Bluegrass and Folk music.
I really enjoyed this reaction. Keep up the amazing videos. Thanks!
This is so good film. This was my late mother's favorite film. She had quite big crush on George Clooney and I don't blaim her.
With this I do love also:
Hail, Caesar! 2016
The Hudsucker Proxy 1994
The Big Lebowski 1998
True Grit 2010
The Fargo 1996
To be honest Coen brother's don't have bad films. Some might be more aquired taste though. It seemed you really enjoyed music of this film. I may suggest even as far as going for as suggesting sometimes: The Blues Brothers. With appearances of Aretha Franklin, Cab Calloway, James Brown, Ray Charles, Johnny Lee Hooker just mention few... Its feel good film with awesome soundtrack.
Tommy Johnson, he went down to the cross road and sold his sold to the devil to become a great music artists. However he did invent the blues and wrote the song Cross Road that Eric Clapton made famous. Sadly Tommy disappeared without a trace.
