Coen brothers at their best.
3/4 stars

I am a big fan of all the Coen Brothers movies, (excluding "No Country for Old Men") but this is their masterpiece. After seeing that both the USA men's and women's Olympic curling teams were from Bemidji, Minnesota, only one hundred miles north of Brainerd, the home town of Frances McDormand's character, and then listening to the similarity of the curler's accents to the characters in the movie, I had to watch it again. Not surprisingly, the movie gets better each time I see it.

But if you really want to see a great review, read the one by Roger Ebert. He won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it, and those that have will laugh right along as he describes the movie. His review can be found at rogerebert.suntimes.com. When you get there, just search for "Fargo"
