My Favorite Movie

3/31/2012

 
It's cold and stormy here. The vet just left because the surviving cat is ill. I have a crick in my neck and can't turn it to the left. My inbox is bursting and I owe a few of you emails. But enough about me...

Since I have nothing else prepared, I thought I'd post this for a rainy Saturday (and most likely Sunday):  I am a huge fan of the Coen brothers. As a family, we can actually quote much of The Big Lebowski aloud. But what I love about this film below, is how in the inteview on Special Features following, the brothers reduce this film to its essence, or maybe even its "log line".  They say it's the intersection of government intelligence and physical fitness. As I build the plot to my current mystery, I have to stop in awe at how much fun it must be to come up with something so hilarious, and so absurd, and then build a fabulous plot around it. A must see movie if you haven't already.
