(UK/US, Ethan Coen and Joel Coen, 2016)
Summary: "From such cult hits as Raising Arizona (1987) and The Big Lebowski (1998) to major critical darlings Fargo (1996), No Country for Old Men (2007), and Inside Llewyn Davis (2013), Ethan and Joel Coen have cultivated a bleakly comical, instantly recognizable voice in modern American cinema. In The Coen Brothers: This Book Really Ties the Films Together, film critic Adam Nayman carefully sifts through their complex cinematic universe in an effort to plot, as he puts it, “some Grand Unified Theory of Coen-ness.” The book combines critical text—biography, close film analysis, and enlightening interviews with key Coen collaborators—with a visual aesthetic that honors the Coens’ singular mix of darkness and levity. Featuring film stills, beautiful and evocative illustrations, punchy infographics, and hard insight, this book will be the definitive exploration of the Coen brothers’ oeuvre." - taken from publisher's website.

Summary: "In Constructing the Coens: From Blood Simple to Inside Llewyn Davis, Allen Redmon looks beyond the postmodern sensibilities of every film written and directed by the Coens to find an unexpected range of recurring ideas expressed in and about contemporary film. Redmon tackles all of the films in the Coen brothers’ canon by examining—among other topics—narrative coherence in The Man Who Wasn’t There, intertextuality in No Country for Old Men, and sexuality in Burn after Reading and O Brother, Where Art Thou? Additional chapters examine the films through the prisms of gender studies, adaptation studies, and a constructivist sensibility weaved throughout their work." -- BOOK BLURB

Summary: By offering sophisticated and multi-faceted, yet highly accessible discussions on a number of key issues, Postmodernism in the Cinema presents new strategies for reading and understanding postmodernism and opens up the horizons of investigation to address the dynamic relationship between the art of moving images and complex concepts of postmodern theory. Organized according to specific themes such as auteurism, metacinema, national cinema, and the parodic, this anthology includes thirteen essays and examines films including The Player, Aladdin, Singles, Reality Bites, Wayne’s World, Tampopo, A Room with a View, Barton Fink, Akira Kurosawa’s Dreams, Drowning by Numbers, Coup de torchon, Querelle, and more.
