Best Coen brothers film?
If you have more than one favorite, nut up and choose a tiebreaker.

Tough, tough call. If you put a gun to my head, I would have to go with O Brother, with The Big Lebowski and Fargo a very close second. O Brother gets the nod due to an outstanding soundtrack.
Sheesh, that's like asking a parent to pick a favorite child.

Barton Fink and Miller's Crossing are hugely underrated but I still had to choose Lebowski based upon cultural import and some of the best lines in cinematic history.

OK, I will probably be ostracized like Elaine when she said she didn't like the English Patient, but I didn't like Fargo.
Of the Coen brothers films I have seen, I'd say I liked Intolerable Cruelty and O Brother the best. They both have the George Clooney factor. I also liked Raising Arizona. We just saw No Country last night. It's not a favorite. These days I can't make it through a movie without a bathroom break. I made danimal walk me through our dark house to the bathroom during this movie.

Marupial, I don't like Coen brother films. Fargo bored me to tears, and Oh Brother was a boring walk in the park.
