So here, in order of just how much I like them, are my 10 favorite Coen brothers movies, with video enhancement where possible ...

Even those who figured the CIA comedy would open on star power and marketing prowess didn't think it would actually play with audiences. But clearly, it is-- prognosticators expect...

2008-06-04 14:24:00 by Variety.com * in Thompson On Hollywood
 
...Coens' next, the CIA spoof Burn After Reading, made me laugh out loud. (The movie opens the Venice Film Festival this August.) Pitt's a movie star--and can be very funny--look at the Oceans films and Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
