Hello! We’re back with a deep dive and wild ride through mind-melting, unforgettable images you’ve never seen before, and we’re joined by our friend, the brilliant and infinitely creative production designer Becca Brooks Morrin! We also read pages 35 and 36 and follow Muldrow as his story gets even more intense and horrifically violent—if we haven’t said it yet, we’ll say it here: this screenplay contains shocking and upsetting images and listener discretion is definitely advised. Feel free to skip ahead!
Coens Covered: Blood Simple (Investor Trailer), Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, The Man Who Wasn’t There, True Grit
Plus: Apocalypse Now, Strawberry Mansion, Skyfall, What the Bleep Do We Know!? (that’s a show notes joke, folks, don’t watch that movie)
