Well,having watched and liked the film in theaters a couple of years ago,I bought the DVD and watched it again feeling utterly glad to do so.Coen brothers are a remarkable duo and this film should be handed to those some HW producers as a sample of how to make a celluloid a film not some drivel or crap even with a minor budget and not-so-well-known cast.The characters are remarkable yet offset,dialogue simple but convincing cinematography brilliant in its sheer beauty.Peter Stormare (a parallel performance to his 8MM) and Steve Buscemi especially were outrageously great.I don't know the box-office results for this movie in the States but being a European,I occasionally feel relieved to see films come to life like this one and hope to expect some more.See 'Battlefield Earth' with a budget of 70+ something megabuck budget and compare.You will be surprised yet angry.Having the chance to be the no:1 in film industry with unmatched financial power let's hope HW can provide something not only for morons but for people who respect the art of film-making. Simply watch this one...
