Hi everyone. I got a little waylaid making the video I was supposed to after the last, so this came as a good palette cleanser. The video is a collaboration with Luís Azevedo (Beyond The Frame), and tonally we went in a different direction than normal - therefore we decided to get an actor to do the vocals. You may recognize Stephen Chance from my short 'Life Outside The Frame' - bit.ly/2nhOEXK. We plan this to be the first of a series that explores comedy techniques in film (we may do TV too). I also still have VIP passes available from MUBI for new Patreon supporters.

I'm looking for a doco on the Coen bros which I saw years ago and explained their youth growing up in Minnesota and the influences they were exposed to in those days. Do you have any idea of that show ?

I wish I could agree with you, I eagerly awaited that one as I thought iI would love it.I couldn't care less about any aspect of that film and found nothing funny or entertaining within it. It was filmed beautifully but intentionally was drab and cold which didn't help me. I'm glad to see others enjoyed it but I truly despised that entire experience.

Coen brothers are awesome! They create weird characters in a weirder universe and intersperse action and comedy into the narrative!

this video is a work of art, congratulations

I think the way you said nomenclature just changed how I see the world a little bit. Thanks! Nice moves, keep it up!

I was hoping to see another video from this channel. It was a long wait, but I think it was worth it. Great video. Hopefully we will see another soon, good luck.

This video is a beautiful piece of art. I keep on rewatching!

I love the Hudsukerproxy. Severely underrated film.

You should have started with "Okay, then" from Raising Arizona, it's said at least 6 times by 6 different characters in the opening 11 min, and then several more times throughout the movie. The Coens are masters of repetition, well, they're masters of everything really, so...

very nice video. More on Coen Brothers :)

I did not witness my buddies dying face down in the muck for..! Fuck it I'm finishing my coffee.

To the initial question, I would have said Sam Raimi because as second unit director I'm pretty sure he directed the great hula hoop sequence of The Hudsucker Proxy, filling in the gap of the circle. You know, for kicks. The rest is pretty spot on the spot.

Holy shit this is an amazingly made video

what are the names of all the films showed in the MUBI preview?

love the word Mubi which means ugly in Zulu

Appearances can be deceptive, Osborne Cox.

Others might miss it, and I only caught the clever pattern after thinking about this video in retrospect once I actually finished it. I think it's actually inventively clever how the informative essay video itself was constructed in the steps it describes, thus becoming a clever way to emulate the styles of the directors being honoured. Basically supposed to be like the Coen brothers themselves made THIS vid, or feel as if you just watched a film of theirs. Clever way to be the example its depicting. ;)

Pomp and ceremony

The Coen Brothers use style to serve their narrative. This video on the other hand seemed like a clumsy attempt at style which drove at relatively little. A kaleidoscopic collection of quick cuts which drove in no particular direction. I imagine this is how watching a Coen brothers film feels if you aren’t paying attention; bewildered, disappointed, bored and annoyed.

This is fucking brilliant
