Camilla Broccolo
Something the Coen Brother’s films have in common is the fact that they are both incredibly violent and somewhat haunting. However, one difference between these movies in the comedic relief; which, in Fargo, there is surprisingly a lot of. This aspect of the movie made the violence a little bit easier to digest. However, the fact it is based on a true story makes the comedy a little more haunting and uncomfortable. On the other hand, No Country for Old Men was chock-full of violence. It seemed as if every scene someone dies or gushes blood. This movie was haunting because the “bad guy” or killer, Anton, just killed people, one after the other. I had a hard time watching the movie because almost every scene there was blood. I also found it haunting that both of these movies revolved around money and the crazy things people will do to get money.
