A Serious Man

2009, Rated: PG, 105min
The Uncertainty Principle. It proves we can’t ever really know…what’s going on. So it shouldn’t bother you. Not being able to figure anything out. Although you will be responsible for this on the mid-term.

A new black comedy from the Coen Brothers (The Big Lebowski, Fargo, etc.). Set in 1967 and focused on Larry Gopnik, a professor whose life begins to unravel when his wife leaves him because his incompetant brother refuses to move out of their house.
