Description

From the Academy Award®-winning Coen Brothers, The Man Who Wasn't There is a dark and twisted film noir set in a small 1949 California town. This is the story of a seemingly simple barber (Billy Bob Thornton), who turns to corruption and revenge to escape his achingly dull life. Blackmail is his opportunity to be more than a man that no one notices. But in the tradition of classic noir, nothing goes as planned and nothing is as it seems. As the barber's plot unravels, the delicious surprises, stunning revelations and just plain strange occurrences will disturb and delight you long after the film has ended. Settle in the chair and listen.

Einer der besten Filme überhaupt: Billy Bob Thornton: himmlisch, Musik: überwältigend, Bilder: epochal. Muss man gesehen haben.

für alle coen-fans.eine verwechslungsgeschichte à la coen in schwarz-weiss.

mit einem unverkennbaren Humor.
Billy Bob Thornton spielt grossartig? Weil er keine Mine verzieht? Nein will ihn nicht mies machen, mir gefällt er auch;-) Bis am Schluss weiss man eigentlich nicht so genau was in ihm vorgeht, trotz seines Off-Kommentars der normalerweise dazu verwendet wird um Dinge klarer zu machen oder das innere einer Person zu zeigen....Hier nicht. Auch dieser Film ist sehr einfallsreich und unterhaltsam auf hohem Niveau.
Ein Meisterwerk!!!

GROSSES LOB AN DIE COEN-BRÜDER!

...eine traurige und doch humorvolle geschichte die für "coen-fans" einfach unwiderstehlich ist. ungewohnt in schwarz-weiss, aber einfach hervorragend, mit einem billy bob thornton bei dem eine bewertung mit "in höchstform" gar nicht zu vergleichen ist, er spielt üüüberwältigend! dialoge wirken durch das schwarz-weiss-bild viel intensiver, der film lebt nur von den dialogen! in farbe wäre der film nicht vorzustellen! EIN MEISTERWERK !!!!
