The Coen brothers’ darkly surreal journey through 1940s Hollywood casts John Turturro as the titular, Clifford Odets–esque New York playwright who moves to LA to work as a screenwriter for Capitol Pictures and finds himself sucked into the nightmare side of the dream factory as he contends with creative block and a series of increasingly hallucinatory and disturbing events. Winner of the Palme d’Or, Best Director, and Best Actor awards at Cannes, this enigmatic black-comic odyssey moves through a series of audacious narrative and tonal shifts that only the Coens could orchestrate with such assuredness.
