Product [edit]

The idea of O Brother, Where Fine art Thou? arose spontaneously. Piece of work on the script began in December 1997, long before the kickoff of production, and was at least half-written past May 1998. Despite the fact that Ethan Coen described the Odyssey as "one of my favorite storyline schemes", neither of the brothers had read the epic, and they were just familiar with its content through adaptations and numerous references to the Odyssey in popular culture.^[21] According to the brothers, Tim Blake Nelson (who has a degree in classics from Dark-brown University)^{[22] [23]} was the only person on the ready who had read the Odyssey.^[24]

The title of the film is a reference to the 1941 Preston Sturges film Sullivan's Travels, in which the protagonist (a director) wants to straight a motion-picture show most the Dandy Depression called O Brother, Where Art M? ^[11] that volition be a "commentary on modern conditions, stark realism, and the problems that face up the average man". Lacking whatever experience in this area, the manager sets out on a journey to experience the human suffering of the average man but is sabotaged by his anxious studio. The picture has some similarity in tone to Sturges's film, including scenes with prison gangs and a black church choir. The prisoners at the motion picture scene is also a direct homage to a almost identical scene in Sturges's film.^[25]

Joel Coen revealed in a 2000 interview that he traveled to Phoenix to offer the lead function to Clooney. Clooney agreed to do the role immediately, without reading the script. He stated that he liked even the Coens' to the lowest degree successful films.^[26] Clooney did non immediately empathise his grapheme and sent the script to his uncle Jack, who lived in Kentucky, request him to read the entire script into a tape recorder.^[27] Unknown to Clooney, in his recording, Jack, a devout Baptist, omitted all instances of the words "damn" and "hell" from the Coens' script, which only became known to Clooney subsequently the directors pointed this out to him during shooting.^[27]

This was the 4th film of the brothers in which John Turturro has starred. Other actors in O Brother, Where Art Thou? who had worked previously with the Coens include John Goodman (three films), Holly Hunter (two), Charles Durning (two) and Michael Badalucco (1).

The Coens used digital color correction to give the film a sepia-tinted look.^[13] Joel stated this was because the actual set was "greener than Ireland".^[27] Cinematographer Roger Deakins stated, "Ethan and Joel favored a dry, dusty Delta look with gold sunsets. They wanted it to look like an erstwhile hand-tinted picture, with the intensity of colors dictated by the scene and natural skin tones that were all shades of the rainbow."^[28] Initially the crew tried to perform the colour correction using a physical procedure, however after several tries with various chemical processes proved unsatisfactory, it became necessary to perform the process digitally.^[27]

This was the 5th picture show collaboration between the Coen Brothers and Deakins, and it was slated to be shot in Mississippi at a fourth dimension of yr when the leaf, grass, trees, and bushes would exist a lush green.^[28] It was filmed most locations in Canton, Mississippi, and Florence, South Carolina, in the summertime of 1999.^[29] Later on shooting tests, including moving-picture show bipack and bleach featherbed techniques, Deakins suggested digital mastering exist used.^[28] Deakins spent 11 weeks fine-tuning the look, mainly targeting the greens, making them a burnt xanthous and desaturating the overall image in the digital files.^[13] This fabricated it the first feature motion picture to exist entirely color corrected by digital means, narrowly beating Nick Park's Chicken Run.^[xiii]

O Brother, Where Fine art Yard? was the first time a digital intermediate was used on the entirety of a first-run Hollywood picture show that otherwise had very few visual effects. The work was done in Los Angeles by Cinesite using a Spirit DataCine for scanning at 2K resolution, a Pandora MegaDef to adjust the color, and a Kodak Lightning Two recorder to put out to flick.^[thirty]

A major theme of the film is the connexion between old-time music and political campaigning in the Southern U.South. Information technology makes reference to the traditions, institutions, and entrada practices of bossism and political reform that defined Southern politics in the first half of the 20th century.

The Ku Klux Klan, at the time a political force of white populism, is depicted burning crosses and engaging in ceremonial dance. The grapheme Menelaus "Pappy" O'Daniel, the governor of Mississippi and host of the radio testify The Flour Hour, is similar in name and demeanor to W. Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel,^[31] quondam Governor of Texas and later U.S. Senator from that land.^[32] O'Daniel was in the flour business, and used a backing ring called the Light Crust Doughboys on his radio show.^[33] In one campaign, O'Daniel carried a broom, an oft-used entrada device in the reform era, promising to sweep away patronage and corruption.^[34] His theme song had the hook, "Delight laissez passer the biscuits, Pappy", emphasizing his connection with flour.^[33]

While the film borrows from historical politics, differences are obvious between the characters in the motion-picture show and historical political figures. The O'Daniel of the movie used "You Are My Sunshine" as his theme song (which was originally recorded by singer and Governor of Louisiana James Houston "Jimmie" Davis^[35]), and Homer Stokes, equally the challenger to the incumbent O'Daniel, portrays himself as the "reform candidate", using a broom as a prop.

Music [edit]

Music was originally conceived as a major component of the film, not merely equally a groundwork or a support. Producer and musician T Bone Burnett worked with the Coens while the script was nevertheless in its working phases and the soundtrack was recorded before filming commenced.^[36]

Much of the music used in the film is period-specific folk music.^[12] The musical selection as well includes religious music, including Primitive Baptist and traditional African American gospel, well-nigh notably the Fairfield Four, an a cappella quartet with a career extending back to 1921 who announced in the soundtrack and as gravediggers towards the movie's end. Selected songs in the film reflect the possible spectrum of musical styles typical of the one-time culture of the American Due south: gospel, delta blues, country, swing and bluegrass.^{[24] [37]}

The use of dirges and other macabre songs is a theme that often recurs in Appalachian music^[38] ("O Expiry", "Lonesome Valley", "Angel Band", "I Am Weary") in contrast to bright, cheerful songs ("Go on On the Sunny Side", "In the Highways") in other parts of the moving-picture show.

The voices of the Soggy Bottom Boys were provided past Dan Tyminski (lead song on "Man of Constant Sorrow"), Nashville songwriter Harley Allen, and the Nashville Bluegrass Band'south Pat Enright.^[39] The three won a CMA Honour for Unmarried of the Year^[39] and a Grammy Award for All-time Country Collaboration with Vocals, both for the vocal "Homo of Constant Sorrow".^[xiv] Tim Blake Nelson sang the lead vocal on "In the Jailhouse Now".^[11]

"Homo of Abiding Sorrow" has five variations: two are used in the film, one in the music video, and two in the soundtrack anthology. Two of the variations feature the verses being sung back-to-dorsum, and the other three variations feature additional music between each poetry.^[40] Though the song received lilliputian significant radio airplay, it reached #35 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Land Singles & Tracks chart in 2002.^{[36] [41]} The version of "I'll Fly Away" heard in the film is performed not past Krauss and Welch (as it is on the CD and concert tour), but past the Kossoy Sisters with Erik Darling accompanying on long-neck five-string banjo, recorded in 1956 for the album Bowling Light-green on Tradition Records.^[42]

Release [edit]

The film premiered at the AFI Moving-picture show Festival on October nineteen, 2000, and the United States on December 22, 2000.^[2] It grossed $71,868,327 worldwide off its $26 million budget.^{[7] [ix]}

Critical reception [edit]

Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives it a score of 78% based on 154 reviews and an average score of 7.12/x. The consensus reads: "Though not as good as Coen brothers' classics such every bit Blood Elementary, the delightfully loopy O Brother, Where Fine art Thou? is still a lot of fun."^[43] The film holds an average score of 69/100 on Metacritic based on xxx reviews.^[44]

Roger Ebert gave two and a half out of 4 stars to the movie, saying all the scenes in the pic were "wonderful in their different ways, and withal I left the movie uncertain and unsatisfied".^[45]

Soggy Bottom Boys [edit]

The Soggy Bottom Boys are the fictional musical grouping that the main characters form to serve equally accompaniment for the moving-picture show. Information technology has been suggested that the name is in homage to the Foggy Mountain Boys, a bluegrass ring led by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs.^[49] In the picture, the songs credited to the band are lip-synched past the actors, except that Tim Blake Nelson does sing his own vocals on "In the Jailhouse Now".

The ring'due south hitting unmarried is Dick Burnett'due south "Homo of Abiding Sorrow", a song that had enjoyed much success prior to the moving-picture show'south release.^[50] After the movie's release, the fictitious ring became so popular that the country and folk musicians who were dubbed into the film got together and performed the music from the film in a Down from the Mountain concert bout, which was filmed for Tv set and DVD.^[12] This included Ralph Stanley, John Hartford, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Chris Sharp, Stun Seymour, Dan Tyminski and others.
