The Life of the Mind! It’s what John Goodman promises/threatens to show us near the end of the Coen Brothers exceptional Cannes favorite BARTON FINK. We’ve talked in the past about how the volume of wins for FINK was such a sensation that Cannes instituted new rules about how to properly designate multi-award winning films, but what about the movie itself? We get into all of it, the cast, the setting, and where it sits in the ever popular Coens oeuvre. Also discussed: Important Cannes Fortnite (and other) news.
