UT , did you make that image? It's dope as fuck and so perfect for this! No I wish , I got lucky and stumbled upon it. Anyways Miller's Crossing is a great movie , one of the more overlooked and unheralded movies of not only The Coen's library but movies from that era. Happy it was able to sneak by on the end of this list and maybe get more more recognition , because I recommend it highly to anyone who hasn't seen it. Even if you don't necessarily like the Coens style as its' come to be - Millers Crossing is different and just a great flick.

But who knows, possibly could. Never seen Miller's Crossing, but definitely intend to check it out now.

Put me on the list of 'haven't seen it, but now I must'. Unless of course, Lionheart comes in here and praises it. Then I will not.

Getting high and watching Miller's Crossing tonight, right now.
If it sucks, I'll flip over to SmackDown!.
Also, I just realized something... I think HHH is the Hilary Clinton of WWE.

I'm getting this confused with the Thursday SmackDown Party Thread.
Also, made it through the first scene of Miller's Crossing.
I'm so on board, but now it's stuck on pause.
I hope this is the right thread.

Verna and Bern are brother sister?!
I'll just keep editing this post.
Finney is with Verna, but Verna is with Tom, and Bern is Verna's brother, whom Finney is taking care of, but Tom wants dead, because he's with Verna who's with Finney... But that means Verna Bern dead? And this is all because of Casper.

EDIT: Where does this take place? So Finney wants Tom to find Verna, but Tom is already with Verna. And the private dick got Chinatown'd. Oh and Finney's name is Leo. And I didn't know Marcia Gay Hardin could be hot. Staring at a dead guy. God know, don't touch it. Is that a toupee?! Now Tom reading a paper. Don't grasp the weight of the results. Steve Buscemi in this Doyle Lonnegan boom boom room. Holy. Shit talks. A mile a minute. The mayor and who? Hahaha they took his hair. They think Oliver Twist was an engine. Or Guinea Pig. Tom still wants Verna's Bern dead. And Casper angling for a fight? Who's side of the war is the mayor on? Stopped paying attention briefly. Missed the whole scene at the bar. Take back what I said about Marsha Gay Hardon. This feels like a con. Within a con? The Sting meets inception. Who wrote this dialogue? Try too hard? Or just right Who's who... Really? Is Tom actually Verna's real Bern; i.e., brother? How long is this. Can't feel. The space between my thumb and the screen Good quote line for UT: Sister,when I raise hell, you'll know it Answer the damn phone. Tom owes who money? This is ominous. Break his legs. Mr. Deeds butler IS Bern. I forget is he in Carlito's Way? Is he Jewish, Spanish, or Italian cliche here? Is he a vampire? Is he the king con here. Who's conning who?

EDIT: Shit stopped paying attention for a second. Is she a Latino OR ITALIANO and here's make-believe Danny Devito again Is Tom making a play Is DEVITO Casper? I think Tom is playing mob against mob to become king of five points. Maybe Devito meets Gandolfini Does Tom have a fetish for broken legs? The high hat. It's all about hats. And awkwardong shots. Get a move on already Got him with the chair. And the bully crumbles Tom is what, Liam Neeson meets Willem Dafoe? He's getting it now. Cops! Did Tom set them up? Is this a STING!? Tom is a cop!? Inside man. Or is this because the Mayor is with Leo? So many cops Where is this? When is this? Telephones but no cars? Look at all those horses. Who's shooting who Marcia would be hotter if she showed her tits in all these scenes EDIT: This is still going. Devito is Casper! Confirmed? Now Verna is conning Tom! EDIT: Is this dialogue meant to be poetry? Homer's Odyssey was the basis for O Brother Where Art Thou after all. Sex scene. Crickets I think this movie is good probably but self indulgent definitely. Strobe, there is no joke. Except that pseudo intellectual the concept itself is a joke. Who's to validate true intellect amongst us? Not LionheartOh fuck this just got Godfather climax dope. Tommy guns FUCK YEAH!!! Fire!!! Trading body blows. Go get him, Terminator! Leo is a bad ass pimp. Greatest scene ever. EDIT: Who runs this town? Who was that grey haired man? Is Tom playing Leo, did he set up that attempted hit? Now Tom is trying to fuck the cops. This plot needs a map to follow. EDIT: Just when I'm out, they pull me right back in. Leo wants to marry Tom's Verna, and Tom has a soft spot, so now he's playing some other angle. Maybes don't make it so. Dropping some sweet lines here. Just like Gotti. Now Tom confesses. Why? Where do his loyalties lie? EDIT: More bad ass Leo. Kicking ass scene. You done fucked up now, Tom. Unnecessary comedy attempt with the fat lady. Thrown out. Unexpected plot direction EDIT: Not even halfway through. There's Verna Where's Bern? The real Bern. Which post am I editing? End scene. Fade to black

Miller's Crossing just barely missed my list, was literally between it and one other movie for #10, and I ultimately went the other direction. Fantastic film though.

I had a different Coen joint as my #10: OBWAT? Only because of the soundtrack If you take soundtrack outta the equation, I would replace OBWAT w/ MC

EDIT: Oh fucking pity party for the couple of heels here.
Now Casper Devito is running the town. Dane is the best character in this. So far.
What's with the bad attempts at misplaced humor? I think this movie has the opposite kind of pacing issues Gotti had
Dane standing up for Mink/Mank? Dane conspiring against Casper. Odd scene framing. Who's this, Bern?
In the brain instructions. Time to get blood on your hands. Oh shit it is Bern. And he's gonna get bumped.
EDIT: I thought Bern was a power player. He's a little Puerto Rican bitch right now. Like a wood-legged dumb animal? What's he saying... If Tom bumps Bern he gets Verna all to himself. But Tom can't bump Bern. Mr. Deeds gets a butler. After all. Put one in his brain. And one in his heart
I don't understand mobs and mafia. What's the yearly revenues? What's the average gross margin? Are these bodies and politics worth it? Seems like a lot of effort.
Bill Paxton meets Jeff Daniels meets burn victim?
EDIT: I told you so. He told him so. Dane is about to get got. Because of Bern. Because of Tom. Tom's playing Casper. After playing Leo. Tom's gonna divide and conquer. King of Five Points.
EDIT: What's a schmarta?
Tom implying Dane is gay? With Mink/Mank. Whoa!?!?
What's happening with this kid. And this shitty random bad comedy?
This movie is 2% epic, 40% good, 30% confusing until I rewatch, 20% TERRIBLE comedy forced attempts, 8% terrible pacing.
Verna is gonna get got. Nope. Is this Dane? Who is this. Bullets go through drywall. Appreciate the realism.
Dane vs. Leo, seems like an epic bad ass showdown of the most bad ass bad asses. I hope it happens. Dane is a whore tracker.
EDIT: Mopey ass Liam Dafoe is no bad ass. Surely no Robert Redford hooker. The balls on Bern for showing up. Seems character inconsistency. Bipolar. Don't like. Yet
Oh, Bern played Tom! Is a twist 1920s for fairy? Mr. Deeds kinda even looks like Adam Sandler. What a pivot. Maybe Adam Sandler plus Al Pacino. Young versions.
Who has power over who here? Bern is gonna start eating in restaurants. Bern knows better than Tom. Oh shit, what a twist.
Another bar scene? What will I miss? One more bra-free Coors
EDIT: Tom playing the cops off against everybody. Inside man.
Tom and Dane together now. Dane or Eddie? Up is down, black is white, I think you're half smart. Ah, Miller's Crossing. I get it now. Tom, how you getting out of this one? Maybe he won't.
These feels more likely for a mob... Smaller scale, guys just taking action. Doing their own thing. Why would anyone be loyal if they knew they could just usurp?
Is that just a dead black dude though? Tim wins due to color blindness
