Description
''There is as yet only one book length analysis of any note [about the Coen Brothers] by a film scholar: R. Barton Palrmer's ''Joel and Ethan Coen'' (2004). . . . This is a book for those who have already made the acquaintance of the Coens through their films and are now ready to think about their work seriously.''--''Film International ''
