On the two hundred and seventy-second episode of THE THIRD ACT PODCAST, the crew are Coen' the distance.

Christian, Jericho, and returning guest Mayra Russo do a deep dive into the CBCU (Coen Bros Cinematic Universe) with reviews of their neo-noir debut, BLOOD SIMPLE (1984), zany screwball farce/financial flop THE HUDSUCKER PROXY (1994), and downbeat noir character study, THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE (2001).

They also chat BRING HER BACK, FINAL DESTINATION: BLOODLINES, and THE NAKED GUN reboot in the Recently Watched segment before diving into Paul Walter Hauser reappraisal, smelly fish, noir horror, communication breakdowns, pessimism, and how the Coens contain multitudes.
