This piece poses questions about morality, faith, and causality. The humor in this film is bittersweet, and the characters sink in despair throughout. We follow the life of Larry Gopnik, a kind, moral man, as his life falls apart and as ethical dilemmas arise before him.

Through an insightful--though gloomy--worldview, the Coen brothers effectively convey a powerful message to the audience and provoke myriad questions about the human condition. A must-see!
