One of the most bizarre tells in recent memory. This is truly a definition of dark comedy drama. It�s a story of 2 thugs who are hired by a man to kidnap his own wife. And a Minnesota policewoman is investigating the events that take place in Brainerd. Those events include 3 people who are murdered by the 2 thugs. What starts out as humorous drama turns out to be a number of horrid events that take place thereafter. This movie surprised many audiences, as it was pegged as a comedy. This film�s new genre is sure to spark film makers to begin adapting its technique.
This now classic is one of my all-time favorites. It's a movie that you can watch over and over and still be impressed with the acting, directing, and the script. It was nominated for Best Picture and was �Siskel & Ebert�s� movie of the year in 1996. William H. Macy should have won Best Supporting Actor for his performance. |
