#fargo Reaction & Review First time watching - Zábava
Mike was a necessary interaction for Marge. It showed her that anyone can just lie to her and she wouldn't know it, which made her want to revisit Jerry and keep questioning him.
I went to film school in the late 2000s, and I had a Cohen Brothers class where, when we were covering Fargo, brought up this very point, and the teacher immediately dismissed this idea in favor of the specifically post-modern idea that the only reason that scene is in the movie is precisely because it has absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the film. I just wanted to say, thank you, I'm not completely crazy for thinking this.
If you believe the events were as exactly as they occurred, as the preamble states, then you can conclude the inclusion of the Mike character interaction was to illuminate on the phenomena of the varying degrees and types of psychopathy: and the old saying: Truth is stranger than fiction. imo.
It took me a lot of rewatches before I figure this out.
Never thought of this before, that makes complete sense.
I agree with the postmodern film teacher. peoples' tendency for everything to be neat and make sense.... doesn't reflect reality.
I love how Margie spends the whole movie hearing about this “funny lookin’” guy but when she finally gets there she can’t see him
TBF, she did see his foot...
I think it's funny that the girls call him funny lookin' when they also are pretty funny looking.
And there was that bar-keep's description of the guy...funny looking
I think it's some kinda in-joke about the Actor.
The foot in the chipper was kinda funny looking.
In a general kind of way.
The scene with Mike puzzled a lot of people - once Marge realizes that everything he'd told her was a lie, she begins to doubt what Jerry had said when she talked to him, and goes to see him again.
Columbo told us that , just keep asking and people will crack , "oh , just one more thing ..." :-)
It was also a reason for her to stay in the Twin Cities instead of going back home, and then she goes to see Jerry one last time before leaving
I’ve never been able to watch this movie for a second time. William H Macy’s performance is so good at being pathetic that I just can’t bear seeing it again.
Just watch Mystery Men to balance it out .
It is hard to watch sometimes. Fargo season 1,2 and 3 are excellent.
Shades of "Boogie Nights".
When this movie came out one of the things that critics kept mentioning was the fact that the lead character was pregnant and not only that, but the pregnancy was not part of the plot only as an aspect of the character. She did not become pregnant during the movie nor did she give birth during the movie the way pregnancies are usually used as a plot device in most films.
I think the pregnancy is meant to show that Margie did the right thing and has a bright future as a mother, as the other characters didn't have a good lot.
If u liked Frances McDormand in this, u need to see her in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. She won an Oscar for her performance in it, and stars alongside Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell
Loved her even more in Burn After Reading. Always love the performances in Coen Bro movies
Also: Nomadland
Dude, great call. Three Billboards and In Bruges (both written and directed by Martin McDonagh) are two of the best movies that not nearly enough people have seen.
I just watched 3 billboards a couple days ago. Fantastic acting.
A really solid film.
Such a great movie with great performances in 3 Billboards. I also love the movie she did with Michael Douglas, Toby Maguire, and Robert Downy Jr.: "Wonderboys"
Jerry does get "walked all over" in a sense, but it's important to acknowledge that he was the one trying to passive-aggressively screw that customer over in the 1st place by installing something he didn't want. That one scene tells you everything you need to know about him.
that he's a car dealer, indeed.
"Significance of bringing Mike into the movie." It got her thinking about people not telling the truth which led her back to Jerry. Best. Leo.
Fun fact: It’s actually not based on a true story. The Coen’s were asked why they lied about it, and they said “Why not? It makes it more interesting”. That’s not verbatim, but more true than this story lol.
How many years are you people going to be regurgitating common bits of trivia & calling them fun facts.. 5 years? 10 years?? Will you personally be leaving “fun fact” comments until your eventual death, Jai???
All movies are lies.
Even when trying to tell the truth they consolidate characters for efficiency or edit for time or make more drama to make things interesting.
@@mobiusbelts3607 Fun fact: You're being a jerk!
Note to self: No fun facts when möbius belts is around. Got it.
But...I had to share some "fun facts for kids" about the Mobius Strip:
-Giant Möbius strips have been used as conveyor belts. Such belts last longer because the entire surface area of the belt gets the same amount of wear.
-Möbius bands have also been used as continuous-loop recording tapes (to double the playing time).
-Möbius strips are common in the making of fabric computer printer and typewriter ribbons. There, they allow the ribbon to be twice as wide as the print head while using both half-edges evenly.
@@brandonolivera8486 Fun fact: You’re being a follower!
I saw this at the theater when it first came out. I went with 3 friends and only 2 of us kind of knew what to expect. My 2 friends who had no idea what this movie was about were absolutely flabbergasted by what they saw. Of course, we all loved it. Hands down my pick for best film of 1996 but "The English Patient" won the Oscar that year.
Did you catch the set-up used for the 1st season of the show? It ties the movie and show together in a really clever way.
If not, all I'll say is... ice scraper. 😉
I suggest watching "O Brother where art thou" and/or "Raising Arizona" if you haven't seen them. They are dark comedies, but not too dark. And, they are hilarious.
I’ve seen two reactions to ‘O Brother’ & both reactors really loved the movie.
22:27 That machine is a wood chipper. It's meant for grinding tree limbs into sawdust, mulch and chips.
"Raising Arizona" is my favorite Coen Bros movie, it is from 1987 and a great cast doing their best work ever.
Son, you've got a panty on your head.
A co-worker introduced me to the Coen Brothers with "Raising Arizona," which was a unique experience.;)
"We released ourselves on our own recognizance"
I seem to be in a small minority here, but of the Coen brothers' movies that I've seen *Miller's Crossing* is my favorite.
Miller's Crossing is fantastic!
Look in your heartttt
@@xx-ug9hn what heart
So nice to see somebody who is already familiar with the Fargo tv show for once!
MARY CHERRY!!!!! Welcome to one of my Top 3 favorite movies of all time!!! Fargo got me, hooked would be an understatement, OBSESSED is the word I want to use. OBSESSED with the Coen Brothers movies, their style, their cinematography, and their very dry off beat humor. God I love this movie!
@Krister L have you seen the TV series? I love all 4 seasons, and there is going to be a 5th season I think next year. The 5th season will be Fargo's last season. The writer of all 5 seasons of Fargo is also doing an Aliens TV show I think for Hulu.
She's such a super lady!
'Where's Pancake House?' - my favourite quote.
William H. Macy (Jerry) is an impressive actor. I giggled with him in "Mystery Men", fretted with him in "Fargo", and sympathized with him in "Magnolia."
Don’t forget the look on his face right before he [redacted] in Boogie Nights
He was great as Dr. Morgenstern on ER, too.
This is my first and still favorite Coen Brothers movie, pretty much a perfect black comedy that also has some ridiculously tense scenes. Everyone involved delivers a fantastic performance but Frances McDormand really outshines all of them
It's a woodchipper @22:18, not a blender. Blender is more a kitchen appliance. You know, more for just a hand or finger. 😁
Absolutely love Peter Stormare in this, almost as much his performance in Constantine. One of the best actors to come out of Sweden.
@Krister L Yep, we got a lot of them.
You might check out the TV show "Swedish Dicks." Aside from Peter, it actually has Keanu Reeves in a smaller role.
This was a good one M! Gotta' love that suspense factor! Looking forward to your next reaction!
I think the reason the scene with Mike is included is because Marge is so open and trusting, that finding out that she misread Mike makes her re-evaluate EVERYONE she’s interviewed - including Jerry.
I’m so happy you’re screening some of the Coen Bros movies.
I’ll echo the sentiment of others that it’s one of my favorite movies.
If you’re screening more of their work I’d recommend: “The Hudsucker Proxy,” “Barton Fink,” “The Big Lebowski” and “O’ Brother Where Art Thou?”
Raising Arizona!
Miller's Crossing gets left out of so many of these kind of lists it's almost criminal.
Mary, if you're reading this: let's do all of their movies!
Fun fact: the woodchipper, complete with the leg and foot sticking out of it, resides in the city museum in Fargo.
Wonderful commentary. Thoroughly entertaining. Very witty and smart. Thank you. (Love your sweater too.)
Great choice for a movie, Mary! 👏👏👏 This was one of my moms favorite films. I have seen it many times. Just bought the limited edition blu ray steelbook of this, too. Great job & take care, Michael (USA) 😘 ........but not Fargo 😁
love your reactions!
If you've seen all of the seasons of the television show "Fargo", you really need to watch all of the Coen brothers' movies. The TV show often scatters in lines and homages to scenes from the films.
You need to watch THE BIG LEBOWSKI
It's gonna make you laugh your guts off
All the “oh jeez” and the character Jerry being who he is…..I’m getting some major Rick and Morty vibes
so glad you reacted to this one! My favourite Coen movie.
20:42
Margie: Can I speak to Mr. Gustavson?
Jerry (what he should've said): You would find the conversation a trifle one sided...
Why would you have him cop a line from another classic film?
18:32: "All this for money." Exactly what Marge said at the end.
But you seemed confused about Carl hiding the money. Remember, Jerry had told the crooks that he would ask for $80,000, but he did in fact tell Wade that the ransom was a million. So his plan was just to keep the $920,000 difference for himself, plus his half of the $80,000. That plan went to hell when Wade insisted on paying the ransom himself and brought the whole million. Carl realised how much money the suitcase contained, decided that since Geir didn't know, he could just give him his $40,000 share and keep the rest. But he *still* had to haggle over the car.
Since you saw the TV show first, you might have missed that it showed the money being found by a guy who used it to start his business. Lester from the show was definitely a similar kind of guy to Jerry, but both smarter and more devious. He right out murdered his wife, and when he saw that the cops were closing in on him, he actually managed to come up with a plan to frame someone else instead, while seemingly having a perfect alibi for himself. I suppose the idea was that Lorne Malvo was a kind of Satan, inspiring people to do evil wherever he went.
When he buries the money in the snow and marks the place with that red shield scraper. That's the marked money they find in Fargo the tv-series.
I always get chills whenever the original movie theme shows up in the TV show.
OH YAH. OH GEEZ. YOU BETCHA!
22:32 That's a wood-chipper, used for reducing garden/yard waste and making mulch although it also (unintended by manufacturers) is a effective body disposal tool.
You should check out BreakingBad, someday, one of the best TV series.
Which might not exist had it not been for the Coen Brothers establishing that style of filmmaking.
Yes Cherry! Critically/formally good and super enjoyable, it's in my top ten for sure.
Marge is sharp. She gets everything about the crime right, from the beginning.
You are very lovely Mary. Thanks for the great reactions!
Well, Mary. This was a warning about dating nice guys. I'm pretty sure Jerry came across as a very nice guy.
More Coen movies, please!
Miller's Crossing is my personal favorite. Not a comedy, but a gangster drama.
Almost all of them are great and most of them have this one similar plot element and moral, even their first one - Blood Simple. You should get it after watching a few.
Millers Crossing is my personal favorite as well but its a tough one for simpletons to follow and understand. Most people ive shared it with over the years simply can't understand it and therefore also cannot appreciate its superb awesomeness.
Not sure I agree 100%@@imvandenh
I think you can appreciate it even if you don't understand every aspect. There is some wonderful acting and a story that is intriguing at times.
"This is getting out of hand here."
Well, you summed it up pretty good right there.
Check out the Coen brothers first film. Blood Simple. It was a wake up call to what they were going to give us in their films.
Oh jaaa! A classic, this one is. Short, kinda funny-lookin'.
Fargo was my introduction to the Coen Brothers.
How do I miss this drops!?!,!,!,!, also Mary is there a way you’ll continue the show?
Well, calling a wood chipper a blender is new to me...
I don’t know how long ago you saw season 1 of the TV show, in case you missed it, one of the movie’s unanswered questions was answered in that season. I won’t give it away.
Frances McDormand won the first of her 3 Oscars as Best Actress for Fargo!
Love it!
Oh Jeez, Mary. Yah, that was a great film, dontcha know!
The only involvement the Coen Brothers had with the show, was their bank account.
Mike was necessary to also show how different people respond differently to death or mention of it. Marges speech in the squad car at the end shows how she's gotten used to it because of her job. Great channel. Your awesome! I have rellies in australia and will be back one day. Gday!
Another Coen Brothers movie you should really watch is “Inside Llewyn Davis”, great great film and my favorite of the Coen’s.
That’s a great movie. It’s definitely near the top of my ‘Coen Bros films’ tier list, for sure.
Definitely one of my favorite movies. You're right it could have been a bit longer
I lived in Colorado for eight years, with weather similar to Minnesota. You get used to it!
I live in Fargo. It's only snowy and cold 4-5 months out of the year. It's nice in the summer. You should visit some time :-) You can even see the actual wood chipper from the movie on display, complete with the foot sticking out of it
Check out Boogie Nights. William H. Macy is also in that.
This is a great film with the wonderful Frances McDormand. She has become the preeminent actress in theis country behind Meryl Streep as far as Oscar caliber performances are concerned.
A Wisconsin Nice accent might not imply dim-wittedness, no matter how many 'ya's' in the conversation. I listen to the Sydney(?) girl saying this and smile.
Oh darn it, I misread this as the movie Argo lol
This and Lebowski are the best Cohen Bros movies. And an underrated one: Miller's Crossing.
@Krister L hahaha I didn't know that! I guess they can't all be winners.
@Krister L that's actually even funnier
also Blood Simple is a fricking masterpiece, in my opinion one of the best noirs ever made.
What about "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"
Raising Arizona is my favorite, probably followed by No Country for Old Men. But let’s be honest, all their movies are great.
There was a story about a girl who saw this movie and because it was based on a true story she really believed there was money buried by a fence along a road. She died looking for it. The movie creators said that part was just added in to make the movie more dramatic and there was never any evidence that there was money buried.
Steve Buscemi is incredible!
"The Big Lebowski" 1998
This is my fav movie of all time.
You should really check out "Raising Arizona", "Burn After Reading" and "Miller's Crossing"
The Coens also do comedies, because sometimes you need a change. Check out Raising Arizona or The. Bg Lebowski. BTW: Fargo is not a true story. It's part of the fiction
Surprisingly this is a comedy lol. My second job was working at Suncoast and Fargo was in the comedy section.
One Of The Coens Masterpieces
This film is top tier
I think you would really love the Coen Brohers "Oh Brother Where Art Thou"
It's not "cold all the time" in Minnesota, just for 10 months, we have two whole months of road construction and mosquitoes.
This was a perfect comment. And that should be the state motto, haha.
And here I always thought that if summer fell on a weekend, you had a picnic.
Yes Francis got the Oscar for this film, but Steve and William's performances are top tier stuff here.
Peter Stormare make his big break in hollywood, Hes a great actor that made a lot of good movies in Sweden
I'd moved from Minnesota 10 years before the movie came out and I saw it in the Theatre. The accents were like finger nails on a chalk board! I grew up in the area that this woman came from Japan, "looking for the money" that was hidden on the roadside... though it turns out that she had more going on. What a peaceful way to die for a tortured soul.... "DETROIT LAKES, Minn. - A Japanese woman whose body was found by a hunter near the North Woods town of Detroit Lakes was apparently obsessed by the the fictional buried treasure of the movie "Fargo," police said Thursday.....Before her body was discovered Nov. 15, Takako Konishi, 28, had shown police a crude treasure map she had drawn based on the darkly comic film of 1996, in which a character takes ransom money and buries it in a snowdrift in the barren Minnesota landscape -- a location he marks poorly with a short stick.
The character ends up dead, and his body is fed into a wood chipper.
Konishi had been brought to the police in Bismarck, N.D., after she was found rooting around in a dump. Seemingly rational, she made clear to non-Japanese-speaking officers that she had come from Tokyo to search for the cache of money from "Fargo," and she could not be talked out of her project, Police Lt. Nick Sevart said.
"She indicated she wanted to go to Fargo. There was nothing we could hold her on," Sevart said.....Konishi took a bus to Fargo, then a 45-mile taxi ride to Detroit Lakes, where she hitched a ride outside town.
"We've narrowed it down to a couple of possibilities -- either a (prescription) drug overdose or an exposure death," Detroit Lakes Police Chief Cal Keena said. He said he was awaiting the results of toxicology tests.
"I haven't seen the movie," Keena said in answer to a question about Joel and Ethan Coen's cinematic "Fargo," adding: "I don't need to. I live here."
Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter
Original title: Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter - A jaded Japanese woman discovers a hidden copy of Fargo (1996) on VHS, believing it to be a treasure map indicating the location of a large case of money.
Just in case it wasn't clear, none of the movie is true, the Coen brothers said so too. They made it all up.
Which specific Atamone song do you use?
Please watch the 3 Taylor Sheridan movies. Sicario, Hell or High Water, and Wind River are all AMAZING and in my opinion highly underrated movies.
I just had an idea for a video: shows that you reserve for your own enjoyment, but that you would recommend for your viewers to watch.
The King of clubs bar is not in North Dakota Fargo it's in Minneapolis a few blocks from where I used to work
I'd also recommend A Serious Man if you do more Coen flicks.
Classic 👊🏼
Love the show "Fargo"
I love me some Coen movies. Go way back and watch their Raising Arizona or Big Lebowski.
what about the last 2 hobbit movies? did you forget about them or did you watch them in your own time?
You should catch all of the Coen films. Loved Raising Arizona, Miller's Crossing, The Big Lebowski and Burn After Reading.
Don't forget O Brother Where Art Thou; so enjoyable and with an outstanding sound track.
To my humble opinion, Fargo and The Big Lebowski are the absolute pinacle of the Coen brothers filmography.
After that, i'd recommend No Country for Old Men (which you saw), True Grit (fantastic), Miller's Crossing, Blood Simple, and O Brother Where are Thou?
The rest of their filmography is also excellent, but that's where I'd start.
Next definitely watch The Big Lebowski and then True Grit.
7:17 Yep we get maybe 2 months of good weather. 6/7 months of cold
any Coen Brothers movie is a good bet. My particular favourite is the light "comedy" of errors: Burn After Reading. (A couple of dim gym employees find a document which they think is a classified gov document and attempt blackmail)
ps: my understanding is, in the USA most households have a Body Chipper used to get rid of excess bodies. Sometimes they're used for wood too.
The actor who played Wade Gustafson (Jean's father) was Harve Presnell. You've seen him before as General George Marshall, who gives the order to save Private Ryan.
Harve was also in "The Unsinkable Molly Dodd" with Debbie Reynolds ("Halloweentown").
She got a little better after a few months, but still cutting down weather in Fargo, where it's been close to 90* for two months, and has winter for maybe 3 months. Not everyone likes living in a desert all year...
Babe the blue ox 😂
19:50 - Marge was reminded by Mike that 'decent' people LIE... so she returns to Jerry for answers.
The Scream movies are dark comedy. Recommend it.
The purpose of mike is for margie to realize the deception of men. After she learns about Mike, she goes back to press Jerry and eventually breaks the case
Easy to see why this movie was nominated for 7 Oscars. And won Best Screenplay for the Coen brothers and Best Actress for Francis McDormand. It's just great!
Accounting for inflation , $4 in 1987 would be worth $9.61 today
