About this movie

The Coen Brothers lend their unique blend of dark comedy to this tale of a celebrated playwright who comes to Hollywood to write a "Wrestling Picture" in 1941. Turturro gives a great performance as the playwright struggling to cope with his new project. John Goodman gives a surprisingly nuanced performance as his pushy neighbor. Also featuring Emmy-winner Tony Shalhoub. It all adds up to the Coen Brothers' most hilarious, bizarre, and touching film. (Original Title - Barton Fink) - 1991 Circle Films, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
