Who wants to watch "Fargo"?
Come on over.

I just made Brownies, too.

Only caveat is I'm having a bad hair day and I kind of look like this:





Does anyone else love this movie? It's weird because I don't like violent movies at all but this is one of my favorites, lots of favorite scenes and favorite lines...

3. We were just talking about it the other night...
Edited on Mon Dec-04-06 11:08 PM by speedoo
One of the comments was about the importance of seeing it on a big screen.... to get the impact of those vast, frozen tundras of snow, and the sad music.

on edit - Loved the movie. Didn't we recently have a thread full of those great lines from Fargo?

"The little one was kinda funny lookin'."

"Oh yah? How do ya mean?"

"Well, he wasn't circumcised."

:rofl:

4. I've seen it. Wouldn't mind at all seeing it again. Should I bring beer?
And I'll smoke outside if you'll pause the movie while I'm doing so.

7. "Dad? You staying for supperrrrh?"
I lived in Fargo when this movie came out.

Saw it in the theatre there. Most Fargoans walked out at the end, scratching their heads.
We don't talk like that. Hee hee.

Now, I live in Brainerd. Go figure. And NO..there is no Margie Gunderson up here.

Loved the movie. Just loved it. And..brownies? I'm there.

12. wow. I didn't know it was true...?
the thing at the beginning of the film said it was true and happened in '87.

I thought it was just a made-up story. :(

14. It is
The Coen Brothers made that part up, too. Stuff of the sort represented in the movie has happened, but it's not based on any one case in Minnesota or anywhere else.

Hi! :hi:

Back to writing...I'm so tired that I think sleep might claim me before I finsih what I was working on...enjoy the movie!

:hug:

15. I love that movie...
especially Marge. She represents the best of the Upper Midwest to me, as she is stoic, down-to-earth, has common sense, intelligence, strength and kindness. And the lecture she gives to the killer(s) at the end is just perfect.

I wish I could join you. Have fun!
