FARGO: SPECIAL EDITION

William H. Macy plays Jerry Lundegaard, a Minneapolis car salesman who is, by all accounts, a loser. He is desperately in debt, so decides to hires two thugs (who are as bigger losers as he is) to kidnap his wife in the hope that his wealthy father-in-law (who bullies him regularly) will pay the ransom. When one of the kidnappers goes of the rails and events career out of control, it falls to Marge Gunderson, Chief of the Brainerd Police Department, to set things right. Arguably the best of the Coen brothers films (they won and Oscar for the script), featuring two of their best usual suspects, Steve Buscemi (Barton Fink, The Big Lebowski) and Frances McDormand (Blood Simple, Crimewave, Raising Arizona) ?who won the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in this role.
