O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000)

This week, we are men of constant sorrow. Randy and Kris are joined by special guest Bill Bodkin, Editor in Chief of The Pop Break, to revisit O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000). It’s a deep dive into the Coen Brothers adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey that embraces the hero’s journey, the power of character actors, and the blustering blatherskite who spawned a whole Ocean’s 11 franchise: Ulysses Everett McGill. Join us to celebrate the unparalleled writing, sound design, and art direction of this gem of a film.Want to get in touch? Visit our⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
