The Coen Brother's Barton Fink

Just a side note suggestion here for an interesting Coen Brothers film, Barton Fink (1991) if you haven't seen it already. A little lighter than what we are discussing now so hopefully refreshing to those who choose to take a look at it.

The symbolism and metaphor are great and, just like Heart of Darkness, can be looked at as deeply as you'd like to dive. It isn't gonna put your brain in a knot though, thankfully.

After you have viewed it and questioned and contemplated to you hearts content you can take a listen to one of my favorite podcasts, Watching Theology, that discusses Barton Fink here:

Also a decent article deconstructing the film on the web:

Here's the Netflix link to the film:
