Barton Fink (John Turturro) is a Broadway playwright lured to Hollywood with the promise of untold riches by a boorish studio chieftain. Despising the film capital and everything it stands for, Fink comes down with an acute case of writer's block. He is looked after by a secretary who has been acting as a ghost writer for an alcoholic screenwriter. Also keeping tabs on Fink is a garrulous traveling salesman, the most likeable, stable character in the picture. Then comes the plot twist to end all plot twists, which plunges Barton Fink into a surreal nightmare.

One of the Best Movies... Ever.This film is not for the intellectual lightweight. Which is funny, because it's all about the "common" man. For most it will be confusing, disturbing and unsatisfying. It's not all wrapped up in a typical hollywood ending for the masses. It demands more from its audience.
I've never seen a movie so rich in visual and auditory allegory. From Barton trying on the "common man's" shoes and breaking down in tears, to the strange glue that is keeping the wallpaper on the walls and oozing out of John Goodman's ears. Every frame of this movie is genius. It changed my life when I first witnessed it in 1991.

Pretty Darn Good MovieThis movie is different than other but that is one of the many reasons why its a good movie... the ending wasn't my favorite ending ever but still... it was good.THE SLOW-MOScore: 4/5
On the other hand......if you were slightly brighter than normal, you'll probably like this movie just fine. Typical quirky Coen brothers effort. Not their best, but far from their worst either..SpankTheUserScore: 4/5
Brilliant MovieNo wonder this movie swept the Cannes film festival. It has fantastic acting, an intriguing plot, and great set design. The characters are quirky, it demonstrates writer's block brilliantly, and it shows what it must be like for a sucessful playwright to be thrown into the movie business. The Coen Brothers did a brilliant job with this..Rage of RoveScore: 5/5

A good Reviw to Bring That Average UpThis movie deserves way better then 3 and a half start so I felt I just had to help out as much as I could, which would be to give it the 5 it so rightly deserves. A story woven as only the Coen Brothers know how..Tommy T. CatScore: 5/5
The epitome of surreal....Not for your normal movie-goer, but an independent masterpiece. Personally, the wierder the better, and this film puts normal actors (seen in normal movies) into the strangest settings. I don't want to rent it, I want to buy it..Luc LondeScore: 5/5
Too Open-endedThis movie is just like A Serious Man, amazing cinematography, a great dark comedy, and fun to watch but so much doesn't resolve that it just leaves you empty after. A good movie but too nonsensical..StalkingtreeScore: 3/5

Español En 1941, Barton Fink viaja a Hollywood para escribir un guión sobre el luchador Wallace Berry. Una vez instalado en el Hotel Earle, el guionista sufre un agudo bloqueo mental.

Italiano Barton Fink - È successo a Hollywood (Barton Fink) è un film del 1991 di Joel e Ethan Coen, vincitore della Palma d'oro come miglior film al Festival di Cannes 1991.Il personaggio di W.P. Mayhew è basato sul grande romanziere premio Nobel William Faulkner, che scrisse realmente una sceneggiatura sul wrestling all'inizio della sua carriera e che ebbe anch'egli problemi di alcolismo.
Deutsch Als zu Beginn der Vierziger Jahre der naiv-idealistische Barton Fink mit einem Theaterstück über „den kleinen Mann“ seinen Durchbruch am Broadway erlebt hat, folgt er zögerlich einem Ruf nach Hollywood, wo er vom Filmtycoon Jack Lipnick als Drehbuchautor engagiert wird. Sprach- und ratlos entnimmt der Bühnenautor (der offenbar noch kein Kino von innen gesehen hat) dem Redeschwall des Produzenten, dass er das Buch zu einem profanem Ringerfilm zu schreiben habe.
Pусский 1941 год. Молодой драматург Бартон Финк приезжает в Голливуд, чтобы писать заказной сценарий для одной из крупных кинокомпаний. Остановившись в ужасном отеле, он приступает к работе. Но дело движется медленно. Бытовые проблемы постоянно выбивают Бартона из колеи. К тому же, будучи человеком закомплексованным, он постоянно терзается муками творчества, отчего настроение ухудшается день ото дня. А все потому что Бартон не знает, чем закончится эта уникальная история, начавшаяся как сотни других.
Türkçe 1940'lı yıllarda New York'lu sosyalist bir oyun yazarı olan Barton Fink, Los Angeles'a gelip bir film senaryosu yazma ihtimali belirdiğinde durumu kabul etmek zorunda kalır. Bir otele yerleşir ve burada film stüdyosunun başkanı Jack Lipnick'le tanışır. Lipnick'ten, yazacağı senaryonun kaba saba bir B filmi için olduğunu öğrenir. Daktilosunda sadece tek bir cümle yazmayı becerse de, içinde bulunmaya hiç alışık olmadığı durum sebebiyle bir türlü ilham gelmez ve tıkanır.Oteldeki kapı komşusu Charlie Meadows, geveze bir pazarlamacı ve tam bir orta sınıf insanıdır. Fink'in hayatına giren diğer insanlar da (ünlü bir senarist olan Mayhew ve onun kız arkadaşı Audrey gibi) genç entellektüel yazara ilham gelmesine ve senaryoda ilerlemesine yardımcı olamazlar. Stres doruğa çıktığında Fink kendisini doğaüstü tabloları andıran bir cehennemin içinde bulur.

Depois de escrever uma peça política de grande sucesso, o escritor Barton Fink é seduzido por uma proposta irrecusável: criar um roteiro para o cinema. Porém, o que antes era um instigante desafio acaba por se revelar um insuportável pesadelo. Agora, além de ter de aguentar um bloqueio criativo, vê-se obrigado a aturar o seu vizinho e ainda vender a sua alma aos interesses comerciais de Hollywood.

български език Бартън Финк е драматург, чийто успех на театралната сцена му осигурява изгоден договор в Холивуд. Първоначалната му идея е да вземе парите и после да изчезне, но скоро след пристигането си установява, че творческата му мисъл е блокирала. Все повече се замества в търговския бизнес на съседа си по стая в хотела, което в крайна сметка довежда до пълния му провал.
Magyar A második világháború elején a fölkapott, fiatal New York-i drámaírót, Barton Finket Hollywoodba csábítja az egyik producer. Forgatókönyvet akar íratni vele az új filmjéhez. Fink a nagy Műről álmodik, ám valójában egy másodvonalbeli moziról van szó, a Jó és a Rossz küzdelmével a középpontban, mellőzve minden társadalomkritikai felhangot. Barton Fink beköltözik hát egy szállodába, ám a csalódott szerzőnek nem megy a munka, alkotói válságban szenved. Egyik nap megismerkedik Charlie Meadowsszal, a szállodai szomszédjával. Különös kapcsolat alakul ki kettejük között.
Dansk New Yorker manuskriptforfatteren Barton Fink, ankommer i 1941 til Hollywood for at skrive et B-films-manuskript til "wrestling-stjernen" Wallace Beery. Fink flytter ind på et lurvet hotel men rammes snart af skriveblokering. Han opsøges af manden, der bebor naboværelset, den tilsyneladende joviale Charlie Meadows. Meadows repræsenterer "den almindelige mand", som Fink så gerne vil skrive for men dybest set foragter og irriteres af. For at blive hjulpet ud af sin skriveblokering bliver Fink sat i forbindelse med en beundret kollega, Mayhew. Fink opdager, at de fleste af Mayhews manuskripter er skrevet af dennes elskerinde, Audrey.
Český Píše se rok 1941 a mladý neurotický scénárista prožívá v nehostinném hotýlku mučivý existenciální zápas při psaní scénáře na objednávku hysterického šéfa hollywoodského studia, nucený přitom odložit vlastní autorská kritéria. Jeho jediným přítelem v osamocení a prázdnotě je tlustý pojišťovací agent z vedlejšího pokoje, ironicky krásná, permanentně indisponovaná postava. Atmosféra je plná tajemství, stínů a Finkových obsesí. Film je proložený množstvím zvukových a obrazových znaků (makrodetaily, zvláštní záběry). Interiéry i exteriéry jsou důsledně stylizované (světlé barvy prostředí spjatého s vedením studia, resp. pochmurné červenohnědé odstíny a pološero Finkova působiště). Sugestivnost pohybů kamery, herectví a zvuku dramatizuje banality a vytváří falešné napětí s absurdními zvraty. Film je jakousi kombinací Kafky, Hitchcocka a Harolda Lloyda. Bratři Coenové ve svých znamenitých dílech představují vtipný surrealismus dneška, baví se hrou citátů, rafinovaností a klišé.
Polski Ameryka, lata 20. XX wieku. Odnoszący sukcesy nowojorski dramatopisarz zostaje zaproszony do Hollywood. Podejmuje go szef wytwórni, zlecając napisanie scenariusza o walkach zapaśników.

W mało inspirującym otoczeniu, pozostawiony sam na sam z maszyną do pisania, popada w niemoc twórczą. Nie jest to jednak ostatnie z nieszczęść, które staną się jego udziałem.

Academy Award® winner Angelina Jolie directs and produces this epic drama that follows the incredible life of Olympian and war hero Louis "Louie" Zamperini (Jack O'Connell) who, along with two other crewmen, survived on a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash in WWII – only to be caught by the Japanese navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp.

Physics professor Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg) can’t believe his life: His wife is leaving him for his best friend, his unemployed brother won’t move off the couch, someone is threatening his career, his kids are a mystery and his neighbor is tormenting him by sunbathing nude. Struggling to make sense of it all, Larry consults three different rabbis and their answers lead him on a twisted journey of faith, family, delinquent behavior and mortality in the film critics rave is “seriously awesome!” (Michael Hogan, Vanity Fair)

To aid her, she hires the toughest U.S. marshal she can find, a man with "true grit," Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn. Mattie insists on accompanying Cogburn, whose drinking, sloth, and generally reprobate character do not augment her faith in him. Against his wishes, she joins him in his trek into the Indian Nations in search of Chaney. They are joined by Texas Ranger LaBoeuf, who wants Chaney for his own purposes. The unlikely trio find danger and surprises on the journey, and each has his or her "grit" tested.
