If you loved Miller's Crossing, try Blood Simple
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 / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Miller's Crossing, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Blood Simple is
A Texas bar, neon humming, rain-soaked night. A bartender polishes a mug, a plot unfolds, deceit simmers. The Coen brothers' noir roots show.
