INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS written & directed by the Coen Brothers


5055201823656 cert 15 Studiocanal 2014. A musical comedy starring Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, John Goodman, Garrett Hedlund, Justin Timberlake. Bonus: making of doc. I saw the trailer only yesterday. I like the music. With these films, you have an odd selection of characters in a small town living the quiet life. Set in 1961, Greenwich Village. The actors have musical talent. Opening scene he's singing a song about a hanging victim. He gets assaulted outside the bar. See Fargo, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, The Big Lebowski, Burn After Reading. Parts set New York and Chicago. I also recommend The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty, About Schmidt, Her. Oscar was great in The Two Faces Of January. Jim and Jean are a married couple. Jean is attractive and pregnant. Troy is a friendly chap. Staying with the happy couple. With the army, plays the guitar. Llewyn has money problems, a folk musician, lonely. Good dialogue and comedy. Itunes/amazon for soundtrack. Spans a week. Unique camera work. Worth seeing.
