To commit the deed he hires two professionals in the forms
of Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare, who set out to earn their
money almost immediately.
Unfortunately, for everyone, things go wrong and blood starts
being spilt. Lots and lots of blood.
So, small town police chief Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand)
puts on her oversized parka and trudges her heavily pregnant
body through the snows to try to solve the crimes.
Fargo is a must-see movie as it is one of the funniest,
blood spattering efforts to have been made.
The humour is utterly wicked and, in some cases, only for
the sick of mind.
The cast, headed by Oscar-winner McDormand, is perfect and
the usually wussy roles Macy gets are made to look positively
gutsy by Jerry's efforts.
Fargo's wonderful photography has been extremely well
transferred on to disc with only very minor aliasing problems.
Sound-wise this is fine, despite the hard-to-follow Minnesota
accents.
This is a must for any self-respecting film buff's home library.
Conclusion: 90% Extras: 65%.
