If you loved Barton Fink, try Miller's Crossing
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Joel Coen, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Barton Fink, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Miller's Crossing is
An empty alley, a fedora on the ground, rain. A mob boss and his right-hand man clash over a woman, a speakeasy, and power struggles. The Coen brothers' subtle touch makes this period drama feel lived-in.
