Hired to tail a saloon owner’s cheating wife (Frances McDormand), a crooked P.I. takes advantage of the situation for his own benefit, kicking off a chain of double-crosses and carnage. Before FARGO and THE BIG LEBOWSKI, this pulpy crime yarn marked the Coen Brothers’ first foray into neo-noir.This screening is presented in conjunction with the sold-out course American Neo-Noir: Reimagining the Classic Noir Archetypes, taught by Paul Wright, Ph.D.
