The plot of this film is quite simple. Famous new York playwright Barton Fink (John Turturro), whose last play was a pretty decent success, I invite you to work in world decent pay that before he not dreaming. After some doubts he still accepts is in cheap Los Angeles hotel where through the thin walls and pipeline heard that occurs in the next room, and sad Wallpaper then and it wants to come off, not from heat, not the devil knows what! But these terms the writer chooses, so to tell me to fully enjoy the life of common people. Here Barton intends to write a do not a work of genius.
However, as you guessed it, in Hollywood not invited to it gave a new hamlet or Gone with the wind. Not at all! Influential impresario just needs a picture of the wrestlers. No, not about the fighters for justice or the freedom of the black people of America, and those the wrestlers who wear tight leotards and all my dreams reduced to only to put the opponent on both blades. It should be noted, such order Fink not expected. And then, of course, went incredible anguish Barton on about coming to work and what kind of depth you can invest in the story of the fat man in tights. In the course of the torments the hero will meet with its neighbor Charlie meadows (John Goodman), with the drunken writer William Matthew and his assistant Audrey. And from the satirical drama the story will turn into a surreal parable.
This I liked the movie tremendously. I did not see a lengthy nor the boredom of the first half, which, he said, many watched a movie. Subtle psychological, satirical and philosophical, the film covers not only the theme of visible surface. Here, as said Lebowski, "a lot of underwater rocks and currents." As the waves breaking on the stone, gifted young writers are divided on the machine "Hollywood." In this movie, on my opinion, each episode, each character is very important and accurate. The painting itself is incredibly versatile and complex.
How the actors are, and words difficult to find. Turturro and Goodman — it's aerobatics. Colorful even the episodic characters (Steve Buscemi, Tony Shalhoub).
Hardly anything we should this painting, it definitely need to watch because it is a film for all times. For me — the best film the Coen. Well, one of the three best. Another — "Miller's crossing", "Old men not a place." Although I about "blood Simple forgot." And "the Big Lebowski". In General, one of five of the best films of the Coen brothers..
