In Fargo, filmmaking brothers Joel and Ethan Coen both embrace and satirize their North Dakota roots. A patrolman and two innocent bystanders are discovered murdered in cold blood on a snowy North Dakota highway, leading very pregnant policewoman Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) on an investigation that uncovers a conspiracy of greed and ineptitude. Minneapolis husband, farther and car salesman Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy), who has long chafed under the thumb of his wealthy boss and father-in-law, concocts an elaborate scheme involving the kidnapping of his wife and a million-dollar ransom to pay off his extensive gambling debts. However, everything that could possibly go wrong indeed DOES go wrong. Officer Gunderson's outwardly homespun and folksy persona conceals a penetrating mind and a fierce moral compass, and she easily sees through the poorly executed and badly hidden events perpetrated by the bumbling, yet highly dangerous kidnappers (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare). Her hilarious and arresting performance netted her an Oscar, and the Coens were also rewarded with a Best Original Screenplay award.

Fargo (1996) Film Synopsis

Jerry, a small-town Minnesota car salesman is bursting at the seams with debt... but he's got a plan. He's going to hire two thugs to kidnap his wife in a scheme to collect a hefty ransom from his wealthy father-in-law. It's going to be a snap and nobody's going to get hurt... until people start dying. Enter Police Chief Marge, a coffee-drinking, parka-wearing - and extremely pregnant - investigator who'll stop at nothing to get her man. And if you think her small-time investigative skills will give the crooks a run for their ransom... you betcha!

Dark - wonderfully, dreadfully darkContrast all that black darkness with the stark white landscape and the sweetly comfortable lives of ordinary (extraordinarily ordinary) good people and you have Fargo.

The synopsis is dead wrongFargo is an absolutely amazing movie.. It perfectly captures the humdrum mentality of Minnesota life and the Minnesotans who livei it, while still forcing the viewer to face the hard realities of violence and mayhem that can settle in the most boring of places. That said, the synopis of this moving posted by iTunes is dead wrong. Fargo is in North Dakota, yes. But the Cohen brothers are not from there. Nor does the murder of the patrolman occur there..Score: 5/5

A modern classicI must have seen this 4 or 5 times and it never fails to amuse and amaze. The Coens at their peak (and Francis, Steve, and Will at theirs). Great soundtrack as well. I'd give this 6 stars if I could. PS I love the 'Go Bears!' title by one of the reviewers before me :).Score: 5/5

Es könnte der Plan zum perfekten Verbrechen sein: Der abgebrannte Autoverkäufer Jerry Lundegaard engagiert zwei Galgenvögel, die seine Ehefrau entführen und vom ebenso reichen wie geizigen Schwiegervater ein Lösegeld erpressen sollen. Doch die beiden Schmalspur-Gangster, der eine ein hypernervöses Wrack, der andere ein schweigsamer Psychopath, gehen derart stümperhaft zu Werke, daß mit einemmal drei Menschen tot in der verschneiten Einöde Minnesotas liegen. Ein Fall für Marge Gunderson. Die hochschwangere Polizistin nimmt die Spur auf – Blutstropfen für Blutstropfen.

svenska
Jerry Lundegaard är en bilförsäljare från Minnesota med ett enda stort problem. Trots ett lyckligt familjeliv är han en desperat man. Han behöver pengar – massor av pengar. Jerry har satt sig i så stor skuld att han inte ser någon annan utväg än att leja småförbrytarna Carl Showlater och Gaear Grimsrud för att kidnappa sin egen fru och pressa sin rika svärfar på pengar. Det verkar vara en simpel affär, men detta är innan polischefen Marge Gunderson från byn Brainerd sätts på fallet. Hon vaggar från spår till spår och närmar sig sakta men säkert den desperate Jerry, som i sin tur har mycket stora problem att hålla både sin svärfar och de båda kidnapparna i schack.

Jerry Lundegaard borçları olan bir sahtekârdır. İhtiyaç duyduğu meblağda parayı acilen edinmeli ve borçlarını temizlemelidir. Karısının babası oldukça zengin bir adamdır; ancak gamsız bir sahtekar olan Jerry’ye yardım etmesi imkansız gibi görünmektedir. Jerry’nin aklına şeytani bir fikir gelir.

סוחר מכוניות ממינסוטה שוכר שני פושעים קטנים כדי שיחטפו את אשתו. דמי הכופר שישלם אביה, כך הוא מאמין, יחלצו אותו מהצרות הכלכליות בהן הוא שקוע. כדרכן של מזימות מן הסוג זה, העניינים משתבשים...

日本語
 アメリカ中北部の田舎町を舞台に、偽装誘拐が引き起こす惨劇とそれに関わる人々の奇妙な姿を描いたユニークな犯罪ドラマ。  ミネソタ州ミネアポリスに住むカー・ディーラーのジェリー・ランディガード(W・H・メイシー)は借金返済のために自分の妻ジーンを誘拐し、会社のオーナーでもある義父から身代金をいただこうと考えた。誘拐を実行するのは、前科者の従業員から紹介された妙な二人組、カール(S・ブシェミ)とグリムスラッド(P・ストーメア)。だがジーンを自宅から誘拐した二人は、隣町ブレイナードまで逃げたところで、停車を命じた警官と目撃者を射殺してしまう。ブレイナードの女性警察署長マージ・ガンダーソン(F・マクドーマンド)は事件を追ってミネアポリスに赴くが、その間にも狂い始めた誘拐計画は次々と犠牲者を産んでいく……。  コーエン兄弟はその特異な作風で知られる、80~90年代アメリカ・インディペンデント映画界の雄だが、この作品はその真価がもっとも発揮された一編と言っていいだろう。実話を基にしているとはいえ、ほとんどは創作だというストーリー自体の面白さももちろんだが、個々のキャラクターのおかしさとさりげなくも効果的な台詞の数々は、ドラマの完成度を極限まで高めている。雪に覆われた白い町で起こる血みどろの物語。まさに“白のフィルム・ノワール”と呼んでもいい。カンヌ映画祭で監督賞に輝いただけでなく、アカデミーでは主演女優賞と脚本賞も獲得した逸品。

Izvrstni kimič s črnohumornim nadihom je režiral Joel Coen po scenariju, ki ga je napisal z bratom Ethanom. Na Festivalu v Cannesu je dobil nagrado za najboljšega režiserja. Frances McDormand je bila nagrajena z oskarjem za najboljšo igralko, Joel in Ethan pa z oskarjem za najboljši scenarij. Fargo je po mnenju mnogih kritikov verjetno najboljši film v karieri bratov Coen. Prodajalec rabljenih avtomobilov Jerry Lundegaard zaide v hude dolgove, zato se odloči organizirati ugrabitev svoje žene, da bi od njenega bogatega očeta Wadea Gustafsona dobil visoko odkupnino. Jerry živi v Minneapolisu v zvezni državi Minnesoti, za ugrabitev pa najame dva neumna in okrutna kriminalca, ki živita v mestu Fargo v Severni Dakoti. Eden od njiju, Carl Showalter, ves čas govori, drugi, neumnejši in nevarnejši Gaear Grimsurd, pa ves čas molči. Jerry se z njima dogovori, da si bodo razdelili denar od odkupnine. Dvojec zelo nespretno izvede ugrabitev...

Padėvėtų automobilių pardavėjui Džeriui mirtinai reikia pinigų. Pinigu turi jo uošvis, bet jis yra toks šykštuolis, kad į jį kreiptis net neverta. Bet Džeris sugalvoja originalų planą, kaip tuos pinigus iš uošvio "išmušti": kadangi senis tikriausiai myli savo dukterį, tai tikrai sumokes už ją išpirką. Žmonos pagrobimui Džeris pasamdo du tipus: Karlą, pasižyminti visada perkreipta fizionomija ir ilgšį Girą, kuris per parą sugeba išspausti porą žodžių, bet veido mimika nenusileidžia Basteriui Kitonui. Mažoje užeigoje sudaromas konkretus veiksmų planas, kuris Džerio nuomone, yra tiesiog idealus. Bet kadangi planą vykdyti imasi du idiotai, tai jis virsta katastrofa. Duetas pradeda veikti savarankiškai, atsiranda lavonų, lagaminėlis pinigų ir absoliutus absurdas, kuriam galą padaro devintą mėnesį nėščia policininkė Marge Gunderson.

Prodavač rabljenih automobila Jerry Lundegaard upao je u velike dugove, pa je odlučio organizirati otmicu svoje žene kako bi od njezinog bogatog oca Wadea Gustafsona dobio visoku otkupninu. Jerry živi u Minneapolisu, u saveznoj državi Minnesoti, a za otmicu unajmi dvojicu glupih i okrutnih kriminalaca koji žive u gradu Fargu, u Sjevernoj Dakoti. Jedan od njih, Carl Showalter, uvijek priča, dok drugi, gluplji i opasniji Gaear Grimsrud, uvijek šuti. Jerry se s njima dogovori da će podijeliti novac od otkupnine. Oni vrlo nespretno izvedu otmicu. Dok se s Jerryjevom ženom voze u automobilu snijegom pokrivenim cestama Minnesote, zaustavi ih policajac. Od tog trenutka događaji će poprimiti neplanirani tijek. Otmičari za sobom ostavljaju mrtva tijela. Slučaj preuzima policajka Marge Gunderson, koju ni trudnoća ne može omesti... Izvor: www.mojtv.hr
