[I]I'm not afraid of you Marty..[/I] [img]http://thisdistractedglobe.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/Blood%20Simple%20poster%201.jpg[/img] Trailer right here: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE07qwfKCRw[/media] Blood Simple is a crime film produced in 1984, written and directed by the Coen Brothers. It is their first feature film. [quote=IMDb]Abby is cheating on her saloonkeeper husband, Marty. The object of her affections is Ray, one of Marty's bartenders. Marty hires Visser, an unscrupulous detective, to kill them. But Visser has other, more lucrative plans of his own. So begins a calculating round of double and triple crosses that build to a bloodcurdling, surprise-filled climax.[/quote] I loved each and every second of this film. It's exciting, ironic and overall a very smart film. After seeing it I immediately wanted to have a read on the film so I looked up the script, which is [url=http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Blood-Simple.html]here[/url], found it quite a fun read. Brilliant film in my opinion and a must see for all Coen lovers. 11/10
I love all of their other movies and I still need to get my hands on this one. I heard it's one of their more weirder movies.
