i likeses them in this order:

millers crossing
barton fink
the hudsucker proxy
the man who wasnt there
big lewbowsky [sp?]
o brother where art thou
raising arizona
blood simple
fargo

i think that's it, not forgetting any am i?



O Brother, Where Art Thou? for me, followed by The Big Lebowski



I felt like Hamlet, trying to write this list up. Only without the regicide and the politics.

These three are tied for first. I cannot choose between them, as they are all genius in their different ways.

O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Raising Arizona
Miller's Crossing


If I had to drop one down to second place, it'd be Miller's Crossing, by default. Between the three, I've seen it the least amount of times--and that must count for something.

Of the rest:

2. The Big Lebowski
3. Fargo
4. The Man Who Wasn't There
5. Barton Fink
6. Blood Simple
7. The Hudsucker Proxy - No question on this one. It is by far my least favorite Coen film.

The Big Lebowski was hilarious.



Hard to choose one, so....

For their comedies, it's The Big Lebowski

For the rest, No Country for Old Men.
