- From the brilliant minds of Joel & Ethan Coen, this keys in on a good guy, who is an idiot husband that can't stand his wife who comes from a wealthy family. He's miserable & wants to get rid of her. He hires two idiot henchmen & who were bigger idiots than he was & everything unravels as he tries to get rid of his wife while police officer Marge Gunderson tries to get to the bottom of it. Great movie.
