Watched on AmazonPrime.
19 songs in the Soundtracks, many performed by OI.
Slow, sad folk music, dreary surroundings, flopping with friends and acquaintances, pointless road trips, abandoned career, attempted return to merchant marine. No verbs necessary; the story drifts with the principal character.
Chalk up another "miss" for the Coens with me. One viewing was too much.
Rated 7.5 (121,666)
CBS Films, dir. Coen & Coen; 5
