Introduced by Maureen Herzog and Dave Walker, Foundation for Independent Media Arts
Three escaped convicts search for hidden treasure in 1930s Mississippi. Loosely based on Homer’s Odyssey, this “Movies Houstonians Love” presentation follows Ulysses Everett McGill (George Clooney) and his fugitive companions (Tim Blake Nelson, John Turturro) as they try to recover buried money from a bank heist while pursued by a relentless lawman. Filmed in wide screen, this Coen Brothers favorite is full of colorful characters and hilarity, punctuated by a memorable T Bone Burnett soundtrack.
