Consider The Parking Lot

This week’s episode of Someone Else’s Movie is the first time the show gets to tackle the work of Joel and Ethan Coen, and we do it through my very favorite of their films.

Pat Thornton, a wonderful comic and actor who’s been getting a lot of attention for his performance in Filth City — though he deserves at least as much for his new Comedy Network special Different Times — picked A Serious Man, their almost-autobiographical 2009 farce about a Minnesota academic whose world collapses into chaos over a few weeks in 1967. And we have a great time digging into it, and into the Coens’ filmography in general.
