Review of The Hudsucker Proxy (1994) by Ken S — 15 Apr 2014
The Coen Brothers are wonderfully insane. This is their fictional account of the creation of the "Hula Hoop" (you know...for kids!) and their tribute to the fast-talking comedies of the 1940s.
Beyond the sharp script (also written with the fantastic Sam Raimi) and direction of the Coens, it has great costume design, a fantastic cast, and is really one of their best films...You know...for kids! Tim Robbins and Paul Newman are as fantastic as ever, and Jennifer Jason Leigh is quite good in the sort of Katharine Hepburn role.
It is just a fun film with lots of laughs and a feel good tone.
