A Serious Man

Description

A Serious Man is probably the best Coen brothers' movie. It is a hilarious parable disguised as anti-Jewish satire. The being Jewish, for authors, is not so much the subject as an occasion for much more interesting and witty conversation. The object of their ridicule is certainly neither the American Tzadik not the Jewish community as a whole, and certainly not God-seeking, but in itself painful mistrust inherent Semites. In general, it seems that anyone with the words "Bar Mitzvah" and "Dibbuk" aches nostalgic parts of the brain, "A Serious Man" will become perhaps the most hilarious film of the year, and this is the important detail in the case with Cohen's. In essence, "A Serious Man," this is "The Simpsons Movie" translated into the universal language of cinema as an everyday way of perceiving the infinite series of pleasant wonders.

The super-smart but tragically nerdy kids go to Harvard; the wise-ass geniuses go to Yale. Natalie Portman went to Yale. Therefore, no one should feel at all surprised that Portman can follow a brilliant and breathtaking performance in Black Swan with a charming and lighthearted romp through No Strings Attached. The bitter and brutal ballet movie showed critics and audiences just how smart, sensitive, and psychotic Portman can become when a role demands manic intensity. One critic commented, "She always has been good, but now we know the woman actually can act—except she is so good we forget she is acting." No Strings Attached proves Portman's range, and it satisfies her concern that Hollywood produces far too few "vulgar" comedies for women by women and starring women."No Strings Attached gained director Ivan Reitman's attention when it qualified for the 2009 "Hollywood Blacklist," a studio executive's annual collection of the best scripts that have failed to make the cut at every major studio. The writers pitched No Strings Attached in a single sentence: "A guy and a girl struggle to have an exclusively sexual relationship as they both come to realize they want much more." Although the plot seems painfully thin, irony, sentiment, and humor alloy the script. Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher punctuate and pixelate the post-modern era's answer to Doris Day and Rock Hudson, delivering a sweetly satisfying Valentine's Day confection. Apparently, at Yale, students learn never to take themselves or their obvious brilliance too seriously.
