The Movie: Fargo (1996)
What Is It?: The
Coen Brothers’ black comedy about an idiotic get-rich-quick kidnapping scheme
gone horribly wrong is probably their most perfect movie (and it inspired the best series currently on TV). Unflappable
Midwesterners end up in insane circumstances that really test their
unflapability. Some end up screaming like animals. Some just end up confused.
Why Today?: N.
Dakota is the 39th state, and today is 3/9.
