FARGO (R)
1 hrs, 38 mins
RELEASE: 04/05/1996
Violent, quirky, and darkly funny, Fargo delivers an original crime story and a wonderful performance by McDormand.
Fargo is a 1996 Oscar-winning American crime drama film produced, directed, written, and edited by brothers Joel and Ethan Coen, a reality-based crime drama set in Minnesota in 1987.
Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) is a car salesman in Minneapolis who has gotten himself into debt and is so desperate for money that he hires two thugs (Steve Buscemi), (Peter Stormare) to kidnap his own wife. Jerry will collect the ransom from her wealthy father (Harve Presnell), paying the thugs a small portion and keeping the rest to satisfy his debts.
The scheme collapses when the thugs shoot a state trooper.
