"Two words. Marge Gunderson." — Kate Muir, The Tims (UK)

"Fargo has been hauntingly photographed by Roger Deakins with great, expressive use of white-outs that sometimes make the characters appear to be moving through a dream." — Janet Maslin, New York Times

"With Fargo, Joel and Ethan Coen return to the glory days of 1987 and Raising Arizona." — Susan Stark, Detroit News

We've got a real Midwestern tradition over here at the Ped Mall, our annual Rooftop screening of the Coen Brothers' FARGO! In this seven-time Oscar-nominated film, things go terribly awry when small-time Minnesota car salesman Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) hires two thugs (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife so he can collect the ransom from his wealthy father-in-law. Once people start dying, the very chipper and very pregnant Police Chief Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand, who won an Oscar for her performance) takes the case. Is she up for this challenge? You betcha.

In the case of inclement weather, the screening will occur indoors.
