What is /tv/s opinion about this film?
>>224213559approved
hard pass on Coen slop aside from Raising Arizona
>>224213559it's good. john goodman is a kino machine.
jewkino
>>224213559Films about the artistic process are the worst kind of masturbatory bullshit. I don't care how many layers of metaphor they're steeped in.
>>224213559one of the most anti-semitic movies ever made
>>224213810>Films about the artistic process are the worst kind of masturbatory bullshit.But the film chastises Barton for being a masturbatory faux-intellectual. If you dislike films about the process, you should honestly enjoy this one.
What does Barton Fink do the whole run time?John Turturro couldn't tell you, Goodman couldn't, and neither could the Coens.
>>224213957Maybe I should watch it again. Been a while since I've seen it. I do like the Cohen brothers despite their (((status))).
Kino of the highest order.Requires high IQ and appreciation for true beauty.
>>224213559the ending made me shitted in my pants with how cool it was
>>224213720Yeah, well, that's just like... your opinion, man.
>>224213559Gotta be the Coens’ spookiest movie. The part when hears Goodman’s character laughing/crying on the other side of the wall is the most unnerved I’ve felt watching one of their films. Been forever since I’ve seen it. Perhaps this is my cue to watch it again.
What did he mean by this?
of course...
>>224214726You’re just now figuring out that they’re Jews?
what was their problem?
>>224214875ikr"coen"That anon doesnt even have a jewdar
>>224214723A reference to something Barton told him earlier.
>>224214726What? The coen brothers are jews????

>>224213559>Oi was rioped!
>>224213559People seem to forget they won Palme d'Or for this film. Personally, at the end of the day, after all the memorable lines and whatnot, I just love how the film looks. The arrival at the hotel (the fade-in from the ocean surf), the scenes of Barton in his room, etc., all have a mysterious, creepily captivating quality to them. Also the broad really turns me on.
>>224215667>a mysterious, creepily captivating quality to themThis is every Coen movie, the gimmick wears thin after one movie
I remember just barely being able to grasp it. Like that picture on the wall. I should rewatch it. I hope it's more than just a writer learning to be better, but I hope it's not some allegory for WW2.
>>224214876fucking love them>>224215667I love the dialogue but that's what does it for me too. I love that last show at the beach>>224215738>I remember just barely being able to grasp it. Like that picture on the wall.don't treat like a puzzle anon, just let it wash over you. I don't know nor what to know what the picture means, but as corny as it is it moves me. Imagine living in that period, or this movie's version of it
