Joel and Ethan Coen

Joel David Coen and Ethan Jesse Coen are two of the most influential American film makers known better as the "Coen Brothers".  The brothers write, direct, edit, and produce their own films together. This combination is nothing more than a winner, with a line of cult classics, such as Fargo and the Big Lebowski and great films, such as No Country For Old Men taking the Oscar for Picture of the year in 2007.

                                         Two film legends.

The latest addition to the line of great films by the Coen Brothers is True Grit, a remake of the 1969 Western film of the same name, starring  John Wayne, based on the 1968 novel. The remake stars Matt Daemon, Josh Brolin, and my person who entertained me from last time; Jeff Bridges. The Coen brothers have made another masterpiece, as the film not only has grossed the most in this weeks line of block busters, but also has one of the highest user voted scores on www.IMDB.com of 8.3, securing it a place on the top #250 films of all time!

Heres to great film making and a big thanks to the Coen Brothers for being two brothers who entertained us this week.
