The Ballad of Buster Scruggs - Movie Review

We do an analysis of the Coen Brothers latest effort, the Ballad of Buster Scruggs.  It's a series of 6-western themed vignettes with the requisite Coen-quirkiness.  Each story has a few interesting points for the sake of our discussion...and what do you know, it comes out to enough for a show. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs recounts the narrative of a sharp-shooting vocalist.  In Near Algodones, a would be bank-robber gets his due to say the very least.  Meal Ticket is a dreary story around two fatigued weary traveling entertainers.  All Gold Canyon is an nearly one man show about a miner digging for gold, while a lady finds a startling level of adoration, alongside a portion of life's savage incongruity, on a wagon train over the prairies in The Gal Who Got Rattled.  And lastly, spooky feels frequent The Mortal Remains as a Woman downpours judgment upon a diverse group of fellow carriage companions each with a different philosophy on life.   We throw about ten minutes at each story and this falls right into Robert’s wheelhouse.  Join us for the lively discussion. And next week, get ready, we’re doing the goofy classic My Cousin Vinny with our lawyer friend, and fellow podcaster, Patrick MacFarlane of the Liberty Weekly Podcast.
