The Hudsucker Proxy It's been a while since I saw this one, I forgot how hard they lean into the Frank Capra/Looney Tunes screwball thing. And how similar everything looks & feels to Brazil. It's a weird tone but once you settle into it it's very fun. The whole cast is great, I especially enjoyed Paul Newman being super menacing and I've been muttering "sure, sure" to myself all morning lol. JJL's character is exhausting at first but that's kind of the point, she's perfect and so is the entire newsroom. And for some reason the biggest laugh for me was the completely inconsequential moment when the Dean Martin stand-in winds up to take a drink between verses but goes back to singing at the last second lol Enjoyed it a ton but I still think it's one of the lesser Coen movies (that I've seen), a few pieces just feel kind of awkward and undercooked. Still great fun overall though 3/5 vhs tapes

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs Never seen this one before, pretty drat good. Westerns are kind of a natural fit for the Coens so this worked well for the most part. Surprisingly dark in parts, sometimes without any hint of comedy at all which felt a little weird for a Coen bros movie, but it was all executed really well. The only story that felt a little weak to me was the very last one, and even that was still compelling because of the performances. Tom Waits also completely stole the whole movie imo. His story was by far my favorite and had the best tone and pacing. Kind of insane he's never played a grizzled prospector before, he was born for it. Good poo poo, great watch if you're in a western mood and feeling cynical lol. 4/5 vhs tapes
