... you can learn from:
Barton Fink (1991)
Barton: Have you read the Bible, Pete?Pete: Holy Bible?Barton: Yeah.Pete: Yeah, I think so.Anyway, I've heard about it.
Every time I re-watch Barton Fink I come to love it more and more, until my last re-watch a couple of months ago it cemented it firmly in my top three Coens movies (alongside Fargo and A Serious Man). It's so funny and strange and ultimately terrifying and the relationship between Turturro and John Goodman ranks among the greatest in any Coens movie. Most of all I am always, every time, surprised by it -- it always brings something new out to contemplate. Just a brilliant film. And with that we wish John Turturro a happy 68th birthday today! I am a couple of episodes behind (I just watched the episode pictured below last night) but I did finally start watching the new season of Severance and his character of Irving remains my favorite character on the show by leaps and bounds -- when do we are we gonna get John an Oscar? He's seriously overdue. Let's get on that.
