| Movie Description Joel and Ethan Coen transport Homer's ODYSSEY to the depression-era South in the silly, fun comedy O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? George Clooney, John Turturro, and Tim Blake Nelson star as three escaped fugitives on the run in Mississippi. Their adventures through the barren landscape includes run-ins with a soothsayer, a trio of Sirens, a Bible-salesman Cyclops, as well as other archetypes from Southern folklore and pop-culture including a young blues musician, the Klan, and bank robber Baby Face Nelson. Soon they are caught up in a vicious gubernatorial campaign that would make Huey Long proud. The Coen brothers mix in a host of cinematic references in O BROTHER, including SULLIVAN'S TRAVELS, COOL HAND LUKE, I AM A FUGITIVE FROM A CHAIN GANG, and even dashes of the Three Stooges. The soundtrack of folk ballads, yodeling traditionals, Delta blues, and prison work songs is outstanding, playing in the background (or foreground) of nearly every scene. Clooney, as the ringleader, displays an effervescent smile that is as intoxicating as the Coens' script is outrageous. The cast, including Holly Hunter, Charles Durning, John Goodman, Chris Thomas King, and Michael Badalucco, is charmingly bewildering in a way that only a Coen brothers' cast can be. Joel and Ethan have done it again, crafting this time a unique film steeped in the traditions of the South--and of Hollywood itself.

Making Of 2. "Painting with Pixels" Post Production Process Storyboard-to-Film Comparison Music Video - The Soggy Bottom Boys - "Man of Constant Sorrow" Interactive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus, Theatrical release: December 22, 2000 (limited); January 12, 2001 (nationwide). Filmed on location in Mississippi. Estimated budget: more than $30 million. George Clooney was going to sing two songs for the film, "Man of Constant Sorrow" and "Didn't Leave Nobody but the Baby," but it turned out that he was rather awful, so he ended up lip-synching the songs instead. He said, "I'm not my aunt [Rosemary Clooney]. I decided it would be easier to just do a passionate lip-sync." He was so nervous that the tapes of his singing would get out that he returned to the studio to make sure all the evidence had been erased. Music supervisor T Bone Burnett was more generous in saying, "First of all, he is a very good singer. What happened with George is that style of music is very difficult and one almost has to grow up singing it in order to sing it convincingly. George did a really good version of the tune but it wasn't as good as he wanted." Although the film is loosely drawn from Homer's ODYSSEY, neither of the Coen brothers have read the book, nor has George Clooney. "We got the Classics Comics version," Ethan said. Actor Chris Thomas King, who plays Tommy Johnson, said, "I hate to admit it, but I did read it. And I read all of it--I had to see how it ends up." The title of the film comes from the name of the movie that comedy director Joel McCrea wants to make in Preston Sturges's wonderful SULLIVAN'S TRAVELS. The premiere party included performances by Gillian Welch, Alison Krauss, and the Soggy Bottom Boys. T Bone Burnett was a member of Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue and has put out some critically successful albums of his own, including PROOF THROUGH THE NIGHT. John Goodman has also appeared in the Coen brothers' RAISING ARIZONA, BARTON FINK, and THE BIG LEBOWSKI; he provided a voice for THE HUDSUCKER PROXY. John Turturro has also appeared in the Coen brothers' BARTON FINK, MILLER'S CROSSING, and THE BIG LEBOWSKI. Charles Durning appeared as Waring Hudsucker in THE HUDSUCKER PROXY. Holly Hunter also starred in the Coen brothers' RAISING ARIZONA and contributed her voice to BLOOD SIMPLE. Music has a strong presence in the film. "Music became a very prominent feature very early on in the writing, and it just became more so as we went along. There are very few scenes in the movie that don't have an onscreen musical element to them," Joel Coen said. Tim Blake Nelson (Delmar) said, "One of the most enjoyable parts of this role has been that I got to sing. I just begged Joel and Ethan to give me the chance to do my own singing. They eventually became convinced and I ended up doing it in the movie." The soundtrack (a compelling melange of southern, country, bluegrass, roots, and folk music) includes performances by Norman Blake, Ralph Stanley, Alison Krauss, Sam Phillips, Gillian Welch, John Hartford, Emmylou Harris, the Fairfield Four, and the Soggy Bottom Boys, among others. The majority of the songs are traditional; one song was written (by T Bone Burnett) specifically for the film. Editor Roderick Jaynes is a pseudonym for Joel and Ethan Coen. Stephen Root, who plays the radio station manager at WEZY, played the radio station manager on the TV show NEWSRADIO. The Tommy Johnson character is based on the legend of guitar man Robert Johnson, who supposedly sold his soul to the devil in return for being able to play the blues like no one ever had before. Michael Badalucco (George "Babyface" Nelson") plays a notorious killer for a second time, having already played David "Son of Sam" Berkowitz in Spike Lee's SUMMER OF SAM. Daniel Von Bargen (Cooley) plays the commandant on MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE.

Top Reviews  O Brother What a Great Movie 16 of 17 people found this review helpful. If you're looking for a hilarious movie this is definitely one to add to your must-see list. This is the ONLY movie I've ever seen starring George Clooney where I truly enjoyed his character. Tim Blake Nelson is one of my favorite actors, he's one to watch and a sure fire Oscar winner some day. And John Turturro plays the part of a Southern redneck to a T, which is not bad for a nice Catholic boy from Brooklyn. There are side-splitting cameos by John Goodman and Charles Durning among others that add to the great comic relief of this movie. And the soundtrack is unbeatable. If you don't own the soundtrack I would recommend it just as much as the movie itself, and the two together would make a great gift. Review ID: 10000000002408041 Was this review helpful? Report this review Great movie!!Review created: 02/22/06(updated 01/28/08) by: 11 of 14 people found this review helpful. At first I didn't think I was going to like this movie and at times it does have its slow parts but in the end the story line stays strong and provides great entertainment. George Clooney is great in this movie. The sound track is also A+. I would recommend this movie to just about anyone to watch. Review ID: 10000000000759795 Was this review helpful?
