The cast for the Coen Brothers’ new flick was announced a few days ago already, but since I’m a fan of Coen Brothers’ movies (“Raising Arizona” being my favorite) and love Frances McDormand, I couldn’t help but share my excitement over their new caper, “Burn After Reading.”
The film is based on a Stansfield Turner novel (Burn Before Reading: President, CIA Directors and Secret Intelligence) and once again finds George Clooney in yet another movie with a CIA plot. This time, however, Clooney will be playing an assassin in this black comedy. No word yet on what role will be filled by Clooney’s buddy Brad Pitt who is also starring in the film but considering the film’s premise is a CIA agent who loses a disc that contains vital, confidential information about his life, chances are Pitt might be playing the agent.
Joel Coen will be directing the film, but both brothers co-wrote the screenplay. Production slated for August. The Coen Brothers’ last major film was “The Ladykillers” with Tom Hanks back in 2004. Here’s hoping this film aims higher.

Rabbi, we’re in agreement.

I notice some sarcasm in your voice.
Does that mean that Spielberg should give up films?
Of course not!
BUT he could start and end the day with a few minutes of Torah learning. That is all we can ask of anyone.
There is NO point in sitting and doing this all day unless you enjoy it and can afford it.
Keep the movies coming Coen Bros!
What EV said. For better or for worse, many people now know that there are people who don’t roll on Shabbos.
Josh’s IP is probably the same as Gail Soneburg’s and Leslie Blunders.
If you will it dude……
Josh,
You can say that about general Hollywood pop culture but not about the Coen Brothers, who are among the most influential filmmakers of their time for reinventing practically every genre of film — horror, thriller, noir, romantic comedy, etc. While there is some criticism that their genre-bending style is overly methodical and smug, their best work — including, or especially, The Big Lebowski — will last.
Who needs artists? Who needs filmmakers? Who needs musicians or sculptors? Who needs actors? What do they contribute to the world other than some weirdly painted canvases or performances that are forgotten by the next breakfast. Wait! I know! The Jewish ones should be in a yeshiva somewhere studying talmud. Nothing fleeting about that, and the contribution to the world?! Just a tad greater than what Jewish accountants and lawyers contribute.
Don’t you ever get tired of the hollywood pop culture? So in this case, you might be giving money to Jewish directors and writers, but what have they contributed to the world other than a 90 minute flic that no one will remember a few months after its release?
Looking forward to it.
Though The Ladykillers could have been better…I thought it had potential.
Yeah but George Clooney is still an Arab-Hugger…how could you even type his name…blasphemy!

I appreciate the heads up. Shield is naturally always up.
Hi Beth,
I’m warning you…the Coen brothers may not be jewish and George Clooney is an Arab Hugger. Better but your shields up….
