The screenplays of the first two films by the Coen Brothers.
Blood Simple is a contemporary noir thriller in which a woman commits adultery and her estranged husband hires a killer to exact revenge. Blackmail, violence and mistaken assumptions lead to an unexpected climax.
Raising Arizona concerns a veteran criminal who marries a prison guard. Because they can't conceive, they kidnap one of the 'Arizona Quintuplets'. A bounty-hunter biker and the criminal's two pals who have just escaped from prison raise the stakes to a particularly violent level. The work of Joel and Ethan Coen has a unique wit and verbal dexterity that make these screenplays a joy to read.

"...a brilliant, fiendishly complex plot, one that gets better as it goes along. There's a kind of geometric clarity to this intricate mechanism, and the audience gets to see how it works while the characters are always in the dark." --Newsweek
"It's plain wonderful. I'll be astonished if the studios give us as brilliant a chiller this year." --Stephen Schiff, Vanity Fair
