O brother Where art thou

O Brother Where art thou directed by the Coen brothers is a film which is loosely base on the epic of Odyssey. The film revolves around 3 friends who escape from prison to go get a treasure hidden by one of the main characters in the desert. The movie goes through many different series of adventures or what not through out the course of the movie. This movie all in all is a pretty funny and good movie.

The lighting and shadows in this movie is done very expertly. During an evening scene in the movie more like the middle of the night, there's a scene where the light of the moon shines brillantly in the ground behind them in a backdrop of a row of trees in a horizontal view. This really does the scene justice adding a little more depth to it.

Through wardrobe and dress the characters really get across the point of being non educated criminals to a point.The stripped little jailhouse jumpsuits they begin out with all the way to the point when they finally do change into something more fitting.

The camera angles are done to the effect that everything seems to have lateral or horizontal movement. Also the camera view from the ground up in a scene where he gets pummeled by Big Dan helps to get the perspective on how big he looks from that camera angle.

This movie overall was a comedic one which revolves around an adventurous plot. It also contains very good refernce humor when you compare it to The Odyssey. All in all, a well made movie
