The Coen Brothers

"The Coen Brothers: The Story of Two American Filmmakers tells the behind-the-scenes stories for every film: what inspired them to write each screenplay; how they discovered such talented actors as John Goodman, Frances McDormand, and Holly Hunter; what didn't make it into the final cuts; what happened during filming; how the critics responded to each movie; and much, much more. Here is the story of how two middle-class Minnesota boys have come to write, shoot, and direct some of the funniest, most gruesome, and exhilarating films of our time."--BOOK JACKET.
