My brother tipped me off to this. The Coen brothers next project, after they finish their next project A Serious Man, will be to bring Michael Chabon's The Yiddish Policeman's Union to a theater near you. If you haven't read the book, it's a high recommend from this end.

I don't know about you, but I totally geek out on the Coens. I find it really interesting that I leave everyone of their movies with a completely different impression of how I felt about the film, but once I watch them for a second time, I invariably love them. Walking out of Intolerable Cruelty, I wanted to strangle the both of them with my bare hands. About a year later, I watched it on cable and I loved it. I'm not sure what changed, except that something clicked. And I feel like every movie they make is that way. You need to see them more than once to truly get what they're trying to do.
