Fargo

Fargo (1997)
stars Frances McDormand, William H. Macy, Steve Buscemi, Peter Stormare
directed by Joel Coen

I first saw Fargo (the movie) in the theater when it was first released. It was not the first Coen Brothers film or the first of their films that I saw. I enjoyed it very much. I have seen it at least once (Sep 2015) since I saw it in the theater in 1997.

Season 4 took place in 1950 in Kansas City. It starred Chris Rock, Jessie Buckley, Jason Schwartzman. Ben Wishaw, Jack Huston, Salvatore Esposito, E'myri Crutchfield. I watched season 4 in late 2020.

Season 5 took place in late 2019 in Minnesota and North Dakota. It starred Juno Temple, Jon Hamm, Jennifer Jason Leigh, David Rysdahl, Joe Keery, Lamorne Morris, Richa Moorjani, Sam Spruell, Dave Foley. I watched season 5 in early 2025.

I strongly recommend Bald Move's Fargo podcast. I don't always agree with them but I find their insights and commentary to be quite valuable.
