A Serious Man
So I watched A Serious Man last night, fully expecting to like it. And I mean obviously it was well done, and clever, and it’s the Coen Brothers, and I usually like what they do, and you all know I like a good dark comedy. But it was seriously (pun intended) depressing, and the ending was both depressing and abrupt. And but so what I’m wondering is:
Am I just not Jewish enough to really get the movie?
Anyone out there want to chime in and help me out on this one? Kthx.

I felt pretty much the same way– I completely recall “meh”ing after walking out of the theater. I mean, yeah, it was well done, good visuals, all of that, but… it just seemed textbook Coen, and that was disappointing to me.

Although the Ron Meshbesher part was pretty awesome.
