The latest film from the brothers Coen

[quote=“Elmer Ephraim Ellsworth”]
I understand that completely. It’s just that, typically speaking, directors who produce films at such a rapid rate run the risk of spreadin themselves thin. Of course, “typically speaking” (Or, tpyical anything, for that matter.) doesn’t apply

to the Coens anyhow. Nevermind. I must’ve just been attempting to stir up a little bit of conversation along w/

getting the word out on their new picture. Playing the ol’ Devil’s advocate & all that. :wink: Carry on, then.[/quote]

Well, I understand what you are saying. I think in terms of spreading themselves thin, though, I think the Coens (maybe because there are two of them :slight_smile: ) are not in immediate danger of it.



What I thought of your initial question was whether the Coens were releasing too many films from a fan perspective. Tarantino films are big movie events, cause he tends to take his time. Kind of like how Disney only releases their older films in limited editions every 5 or 6 years. So they retain that special quality about them.



But this really only applies to film fans. Cause the average person sees Burn After Reading and thinks “the new Brad Pitt and George Clooney film”. And I think film fans are getting used to the Coens’ rapid filmmaking process.
