Why is this movie so popular? The local dialect?

Bad movie to watch on AMC.

And it's popular because it's a fantastic film.

Favorite film of the 90's.

Just watched another...Groundhog day.

So if Paul Bunyan made/famous for "flapjacks", why do people in Brainerd want pancakes?

...and yet in Pennsylvania (home of Dutch baby "pancakes") drunk townies are only up for flapjacks?

It's a really good movie but not one you should watch for the first time when it's censored.

Yahhhhhhhh

I have no idea. McDormand did well. Besides that the movie was no big deal at all.

Macy's performance was a homerun, too. I enjoyed it, but I'm a Cohen fan - I like all of their movies - they are true artists. Fargo may not be everybody's cup of tea, but, objectively, it is an excellent film.

The dialogue was just so well done and thought out - not a wasted syllable in the film:


Marge Gunderson: Okay, I want you to tell me what these fellas looked like.

Hooker #1: Well, the little guy, he was kinda funny-looking.

Marge Gunderson: In what way?

Hooker #1: I dunno, just funny-lookin'.

Marge Gunderson: Can you be any more specific?

Hooker #1: I couldn't really say. He wasn't circumcised.

Marge Gunderson: Was he funny lookin' apart from that?

Hooker #1: Yeah.

Marge Gunderson: So, you were having sex with the little fella, then?

Hooker #1: Uh-huh.

Marge Gunderson: Is there anything else you can tell me about him?

Hooker #1: No. Like I say, he was funny lookin'. More n' most people even.

Marge Gunderson: And what about the other fella?

Hooker #2: He was a little older. Looked like the Marlboro man.

Marge Gunderson: Yah?

Hooker #2: Yah. Maybe I'm sayin' that cause he smoked Marlboros.

Marge Gunderson: Uh-huh.

Hooker #2: A subconscious-type thing.

Marge Gunderson: Yah, that can happen.

Hooker #2: Yah.

Hooker #1: They said they were goin' to the Twin Cities?

Marge Gunderson: Oh, yah?

Hooker #2: Yah!

Hooker #1: Yah. Is that useful to ya?

Marge Gunderson: Oh, you betchya, yah.

And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper?

Love saying that. In particular the word chipper.

I give it credit for being one of the best examples of a movie that seems insanely genuine and really nails the feel of the environment/area it's in.

Outside of that, it was pretty meh for me.
