If you loved Blood Simple, try The Man Who Wasn't There
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 Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Blood Simple, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Man Who Wasn't There is
1949 California summer, a barber's scissors snap. A small town's mundane routine, a wife's secret affair. The Coen brothers revisit noir.
