Episode 065: Paris, Texas & Blood Simple

Martini Giant

It's a Texan double feature this time on MG - first is the Coen Brothers’ debut film Blood Simple, a seething neo-noir that rocked the indie world when it came out, introduced us to Academy favorite Francis McDormand, and secretly laid out a map of the directors' greatest obsessions, hinting at Fargo, No Country for Old Men and more! Next up is Wim Wenders gentle-and-upsetting Paris, Texas, which features Harry Dean Stanton in one of his finest, most understated performances!
