Classic Movie Review: Barton Fink
To other Coen Brothers enthusiasts, such as myself, Barton Fink has a firm place as a fan favourite, however most cinema-goers have likely never even heard of it. Despite being set in the 1940s, Barton Fink has a timeless beauty to it, and remains firmly at the top of my list of favourite pieces of cinema, of all time. In the simple story of a New York Broadway writer, moving to Hollywood to write for the pictures, Joel and Ethan Coen manage to perfectly marry larger-than-life characters, who often feel more like caricatures than real people, with a dirty, detailed environment, creating a constant sense of disgust throughout.
