S6E3 - #98: Blood Simple (1984)

Episode Notes This week, we discuss Joel and Ethan Cohen’s first film, Blood Simple. A cuckolded bar owner pays a sweaty PI to off his wife and her lover and then goes fishing. Nothing goes smoothly from there and everyone you think is dead probably isn’t – until they are. Country noir brings us multiple twists and turns and some beautiful images from clearly promising film makers.     Recommendations: Yellowjackets (Showtime); Archive 81 (Netflix)   Next up: Safety Last (1923) [available on HBO Max and Youtube)   Email us at [email protected] Twitter: @latecomerspod Find Amity @ www.amityarmstrong.com and @AmityArmstrong on Twitter Our Facebook group is here for those who consent: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1754020081574479/     This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
