Production [edit]

The idea of O Brother, Where Fine art Chiliad? arose spontaneously. Work on the script began in Dec 1997, long before the commencement of production, and was at least half-written past May 1998. Despite the fact that Ethan Coen described the Odyssey equally "i of my favorite storyline schemes", neither of the brothers had read the epic, and they were but familiar with its content through adaptations and numerous references to the Odyssey in popular civilisation.[21] According to the brothers, Tim Blake Nelson (who has a caste in classics from Brown Academy)[22] [23] was the but person on the set who had read the Odyssey.[24]

The title of the film is a reference to the 1941 Preston Sturges flick Sullivan's Travels, in which the protagonist (a manager) wants to straight a film virtually the Great Depression called O Brother, Where Art Thou? [11] that will be a "commentary on modern weather, stark realism, and the problems that confront the average man". Lacking any experience in this expanse, the director sets out on a journeying to experience the man suffering of the boilerplate human but is sabotaged past his anxious studio. The moving picture has some similarity in tone to Sturges's moving-picture show, including scenes with prison gangs and a blackness church choir. The prisoners at the picture show scene is also a direct homage to a nigh identical scene in Sturges's film.[25]

Joel Coen revealed in a 2000 interview that he traveled to Phoenix to offering the lead function to Clooney. Clooney agreed to do the function immediately, without reading the script. He stated that he liked even the Coens' least successful films.[26] Clooney did non immediately empathize his grapheme and sent the script to his uncle Jack, who lived in Kentucky, asking him to read the entire script into a record 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 after the directors pointed this out to him during shooting.[27]

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

The Coens used digital color correction to give the film a sepia-tinted look.[13] Joel stated this was because the actual set up was "greener than Ireland".[27] Cinematographer Roger Deakins stated, "Ethan and Joel favored a dry out, dusty Delta look with golden sunsets. They wanted it to expect like an onetime mitt-tinted picture, with the intensity of colors dictated past 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, nonetheless after several tries with various chemic processes proved unsatisfactory, it became necessary to perform the process digitally.[27]

This was the 5th moving picture collaboration between the Coen Brothers and Deakins, and it was slated to be shot in Mississippi at a time of year when the foliage, grass, trees, and bushes would exist a lush green.[28] It was filmed near locations in Canton, Mississippi, and Florence, South Carolina, in the summer of 1999.[29] After shooting tests, including film bipack and bleach bypass techniques, Deakins suggested digital mastering be used.[28] Deakins spent eleven weeks fine-tuning the look, mainly targeting the greens, making them a burnt yellow and desaturating the overall image in the digital files.[13] This made it the kickoff feature flick to be entirely colour corrected by digital means, narrowly chirapsia Nick Park'due south Craven Run.[13]

O Brother, Where Art Thou? was the first fourth dimension a digital intermediate was used on the entirety of a outset-run Hollywood motion picture that otherwise had very few visual furnishings. 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 II recorder to put out to film.[thirty]

A major theme of the moving-picture show is the connection between erstwhile-fourth dimension music and political candidature in the Southern U.S. It makes reference to the traditions, institutions, and campaign practices of bossism and political reform that defined Southern politics in the offset half of the 20th century.

The Ku Klux Klan, at the time a political force of white populism, is depicted called-for crosses and engaging in ceremonial trip the light fantastic. The grapheme Menelaus "Pappy" O'Daniel, the governor of Mississippi and host of the radio show The Flour Hour, is similar in proper noun and demeanor to W. Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel,[31] one-time Governor of Texas and afterward U.S. Senator from that land.[32] O'Daniel was in the flour business, and used a backing band called the Light Crust Doughboys on his radio show.[33] In one entrada, O'Daniel carried a broom, an oft-used campaign device in the reform era, promising to sweep away patronage and corruption.[34] His theme song had the hook, "Please pass 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 and historical political figures. The O'Daniel of the movie used "Y'all Are My Sunshine" as his theme song (which was originally recorded past vocalist and Governor of Louisiana James Houston "Jimmie" Davis[35]), and Homer Stokes, as 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 just equally a background or a support. Producer and musician T Os Burnett worked with the Coens while the script was still in its working phases and the soundtrack was recorded before filming commenced.[36]

Much of the music used in the pic is period-specific folk music.[12] The musical pick also includes religious music, including Primitive Baptist and traditional African American gospel, most 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 film's end. Selected songs in the film reflect the possible spectrum of musical styles typical of the old civilization of the American South: gospel, delta blues, country, swing and bluegrass.[24] [37]

The use of dirges and other macabre songs is a theme that oftentimes recurs in Appalachian music[38] ("O Decease", "Lonesome Valley", "Angel Band", "I Am Weary") in dissimilarity to bright, cheerful songs ("Go on On the Sunny Side", "In the Highways") in other parts of the film.

The voices of the Soggy Bottom Boys were provided by Dan Tyminski (pb vocal on "Man of Constant Sorrow"), Nashville songwriter Harley Allen, and the Nashville Bluegrass Ring's Pat Enright.[39] The 3 won a CMA Laurels for Single of the Year[39] and a Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals, both for the song "Man of Abiding Sorrow".[14] Tim Blake Nelson sang the lead vocal on "In the Jailhouse At present".[11]

"Man of Constant Sorrow" has five variations: two are used in the moving-picture show, 1 in the music video, and two in the soundtrack album. Ii of the variations feature the verses being sung back-to-dorsum, and the other iii variations feature additional music between each verse.[40] Though the song received trivial meaning radio airplay, it reached #35 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 2002.[36] [41] The version of "I'll Fly Away" heard in the movie is performed not by Krauss and Welch (as it is on the CD and concert tour), simply by the Kossoy Sisters with Erik Darling accompanying on long-neck five-string banjo, recorded in 1956 for the anthology Bowling Green on Tradition Records.[42]

Release [edit]

The film premiered at the AFI Film Festival on October nineteen, 2000, and the United States on December 22, 2000.[2] It grossed $71,868,327 worldwide off its $26 million upkeep.[vii] [nine]

Critical reception [edit]

Review assemblage website Rotten Tomatoes gives it a score of 78% based on 154 reviews and an average score of vii.12/10. The consensus reads: "Though not equally good as Coen brothers' classics such every bit Blood Simple, the delightfully loopy O Brother, Where Art G? 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 four stars to the pic, proverb all the scenes in the motion-picture show were "wonderful in their different ways, and however I left the movie uncertain and unsatisfied".[45]

The flick was selected into the main competition of the 2000 Cannes Film Festival.[viii]

Soggy Bottom Boys [edit]

The Soggy Bottom Boys are the fictional musical group that the chief characters course to serve as accessory for the film. It has been suggested that the name is in homage to the Foggy Mount Boys, a bluegrass band led by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs.[49] In the film, the songs credited to the band are lip-synched by the actors, except that Tim Blake Nelson does sing his own vocals on "In the Jailhouse At present".

The band's hitting single is Dick Burnett's "Man of Constant Sorrow", a song that had enjoyed much success prior to the picture's release.[50] After the moving picture's release, the fictitious band became so popular that the state and folk musicians who were dubbed into the film got together and performed the music from the picture show in a Downwardly from the Mountain concert tour, which was filmed for Television set and DVD.[12] This included Ralph Stanley, John Hartford, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Chris Sharp, Stun Seymour, Dan Tyminski and others.
