It’s clear Coen and Cooke missed their window to ironically straddle the past while still wholeheartedly indulging in their cinematic kinks.

In 2018 I watched 326 films, with around 41 of those being 2018 releases. Unfortunately, while I enjoyed many 2018 movies, very few stood out as outstanding to me.

“All day I face the barren waste / Without the taste of water, cool water
Old Dan and I with throats burned dry / And souls that cry for water, cool, clear, water.”
