O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Based loosely on Homer's Odyssey this Coen Bros' gem follows the misadventures of escaped con Ulysses Everett McGill (Academy Award®-winner George Clooney) and his none-too-bright sidekicks Pete (John Turturro) and Delmar (Tim Blake Nelson). The trio tries to make its way back to Ulysses' Penelope (Oscar-winner Holly Hunter) before she can marry again bungling into sirens, seers, and cyclopses (John Goodman) as they stay one step ahead of the law and inadvertently become singing sensations as The Soggy Bottom Boys! Spot-on performances fantastic music and a great script by Oscar®-winning directors Joel and Ethan Coen make this requisite viewing.
