Hey there, Q-Balls and WoHos!
Quinn was nice enough to join me for a ramble about one of my favorite movies of all time: FARGO.
Our conversation assumes a knowledge of the film. If you haven't seen it, please do yourself a favor and watch it or rewatch it!!
From Wikipedia: Fargo is a 1996 black comedy crime film written, directed and produced by Joel and Ethan Coen. Frances McDormand stars as Marge Gunderson, a pregnant Minnesota police chief investigating a triple homicide that takes place after a desperate car salesman (William H. Macy) hires two criminals (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife in order to extort a hefty ransom from her wealthy father (Harve Presnell). The film was an American and British co-production.
Next time on the Quinnisode, we will be looking at SILENCE OF THE LAMBS.
Next time on the main show, Mac & I will be looking at two SLASHERS: THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE (1982) from the US & ANATOMIE/ANATOMY (2000) from Germany.
