I’m not sure what we were hoping for when we rented this movie. We weren’t overly impressed with the book. Maybe we were hoping for some happy, bring-it-all-together Hollywood ending. Alas, the movie closely followed the book, and we both felt exactly the same as we did when the book was over. We both thought, “Is that it?” Anyway, it won lots of awards, and maybe it’s a good thing it the Coen brothers didn’t cave in to Hollywood.
