[zamboni]

[fresh salad]

miller's crossing

This one.

Yup. I also enjoy Lebowski/Fargo/No Country but Miller's Crossing is perfectly composed from start to finish.

Yes. It is their "best" movie.
I like most all the other though...

[quilty]

well that makes it sound dumb when its like their smartest movie

it's a pretty narrow margin for "smartest" once you get in their best five, but i'd argue that barton fink is the smartest of theirs

[cerebralpaulsy]

I think the answer is Miller's Crossing. Lock in "Miller's Crossing" please.

[gauchebag]

lebowski is a fucking landmark accomplishment of a movie

i don't care how much of a pothead that makes me

[fresh salad]

First time I saw lebowski I was so high I didn't get it... had to turn it off,
that's how high I was

[winjer]

the man who wasn't there & lebowski

[deadwolfbones]

It's Miller's Crossing.

A Serious Man is going to settle into the top 3 after a few years of reflection.

[fuzzy dunlop]

has jerry lundegaard the boarder said his fave yet. cuz i probably agree.

fargo has been my favorite movie since i first saw it. o brother is right behind that followed by barton fink.


but don't get me wrong, i still love lebowski.

[isobel]

fargo has the best characters

[Pokemon Mastah]

Feel really embarrassed to say that the only Coens film I haven't seen is Miller's Crossing.

[kitties]

I'll throw my two cents in and say Lebowski as well.
