The Cohen Brothers are great. I need to go see that. I've been a big fan of theirs since "O Brother Where Art Thou?".

Need to see it, too. Favorite Cohen Bros. films include Fargo, The Big Lebowski, and Raising Arizona

Ah, the Big Lebowski, classic! I've got a few old pairs of shorts that kind of hang on me that I wear around the house. My wife calls them Lebowski's :D

Been a fan since Blood Simple.

Barton Fink is their lamest outing and others should be so lucky to have the equivalent as their 'worst' movie.

I watched a good one last night, "The Secret Life Of Words". Tim Robbins and Sarah Polley. I know a lot of you don,t like Mr Robbins (I do) but Sarah Polley is as good as any actress out there.

Shame it is a box office flop.

I agree it is an outstanding film!

Is it a box office flop? I heard it's creeping up the rankings. A sleeper hit.

A flop so far. Opening week was like 2 million.

Hopefully it will be a sleeper and do better and better each week.

I think most movie goers who demand trite formulaic movies will either avoid this film or pan it. However, if you like intense, challenging films and unconventional approach to film-making...
You can't go wrong with NCFOM.

Last weekend, No Country for Old Men edged into the top 11 movies, made $7,776,773, which was an increase of +152.8% over the previous weekend, so far in 3 weeks it's made $16,313,580, and the number of theaters showing it has increased. If you're hoping it'll do better each week, then your hopes have been answered.

Borat was painful to watch. What a waste of film. The only reason I made it through to the end was that I was hoping for some decent shots of Pam. It failed there, too.

My vote goes to Borat being a disgusting, crude, brilliant piece of pertinent satire. It bites for all the right reasons.

Someone mentioned box office.
If the flight deck of an aircraft with an all male flight crew is called a cockpit.
What do the call the flightdeck of an aircraft with an all female crew.
