Man seriously the Coen breaks. Not much to say or do. I loved this movie, perhaps because it is a film waaay alleniana, both for the setting Jewish nerd who want to seek help from rabbis (seen as a kind of psychoanalyst).
The fact is that with this film the Coens have confirmed my opinion that the most positive impact on their production by Fargo onwards I was never disappointed.
But let's step back: Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg) is a physics professor, lives in Minnesota, we are in 1967. Would live even if he did not calm the wife who falls in love with a family friend and wants a divorce, the child approaches the bar mitzvah that you smoke a lot of reed grass, the teenage daughter who steals money from his wallet to get rhinoplasty (which otherwise would be Jewish?), the unemployed brother who camped on his sofa, a South Korean student who tries to bribe him and a neighbor fascinating that disturbs his sleep ( but also its vigils).
short, a disaster. Larry is too quiet and normal in order to rebel against his existential instability. He can not even say " to " when his wife and his new companion system without fuss in a motel, or when it is threatened by the father of her South Korean student. Larry must escape from this situation, then encouraged by friends and family to see the rabbis: he sees three, as we see a shrink.
self-ironic and paradoxical vision of the Jewish world, won a National Board of Review Awards for best original screenplay, an Independent Spirit Award, a Satellite Award for Best Actor in a Comedy Michale Stuhlbarg and National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Original Screenplay.
Ah, one more thing. Emotion. Several times during the film begins with the voice of Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane, the unforgettable success, Somebody to lov e.
