Fargo


The only thing i have to say about this movie is that it was produced by the Coen Brothers. They are famous for movies overloaded with plays on stereotypes and over the top movie conventions. Fargo is no exception, this true story comes to life on the screen and it seem to pull you right into the movie.
Fargo is about a car dealer, Jerry, who gets himself into a bit of financial troubles. Jerry comes up with the plan to have his wife kidnapped and held for ransom to be paid by his wealthy father-in-law. The kidnapping doesn't exactly go as planned to say the least and Jerry has to sit back and watch everything happen.

To say the least their are a few murders and allot of blood shed. The genre is kind of a blur between a few things: crime, drama, thriller, and I'm sure a couple more.
My favorite character is Marge Gunderson, who is the pregnant cop sent to investigate the first round of murderers. Her character brings this whole movie together and plays a key role in the plot. She is played by Francis McDormand who is an academy award winning actress.
