Hi everyone. I got a little waylaid making the video I was supposed to after the last, so this came as a good palette cleanser. The video is a collaboration with Luís Azevedo (Beyond The Frame), and tonally we went in a different direction than normal - therefore we decided to get an actor to do the vocals. You may recognize Stephen Chance from my short 'Life Outside The Frame' - bit.ly/2nhOEXK. We plan this to be the first of a series that explores comedy techniques in film (we may do TV too). I also still have VIP passes available from MUBI for new Patreon supporters.

I'm looking for a doco on the Coen bros which I saw years ago and explained their youth growing up in Minnesota and the influences they were exposed to in those days. Do you have any idea of that show ?

@andrewmarinelly5838 4 года назад

I wish I could agree with you, I eagerly awaited that one as I thought iI would love it.I couldn't care less about any aspect of that film and found nothing funny or entertaining within it. It was filmed beautifully but intentionally was drab and cold which didn't help me. I'm glad to see others enjoyed it but I truly despised that entire experience.

@driziiD 4 года назад

i find it impenetrable. and i think the Coens made it so on purpose.

@alvarhanso6310 5 месяцев назад

You should have started with "Okay, then" from Raising Arizona, it's said at least 6 times by 6 different characters in the opening 11 min, and then several more times throughout the movie. The Coens are masters of repetition, well, they're masters of everything really, so...

@tskmaster3837 6 лет назад

To the initial question, I would have said Sam Raimi because as second unit director I'm pretty sure he directed the great hula hoop sequence of The Hudsucker Proxy, filling in the gap of the circle. You know, for kicks. The rest is pretty spot on the spot.

@Fredfucks4145 5 лет назад

Others might miss it, and I only caught the clever pattern after thinking about this video in retrospect once I actually finished it. I think it's actually inventively clever how the informative essay video itself was constructed in the steps it describes, thus becoming a clever way to emulate the styles of the directors being honoured. Basically supposed to be like the Coen brothers themselves made THIS vid, or feel as if you just watched a film of theirs. Clever way to be the example its depicting. ;)
