Is that the one where the same actor is playing Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham?
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm not sure. There's no one currently cast as the sheriff. Russell Crowe is Robin.

Finally saw Coraline today. Sadly in 2-D, but that's my own fault for not getting to it sooner. LOVED IT. But still sad I missed it in 3-D. Also, I want a Bat!Scottish Terrier.

Paging Strega: I just saw Miller's Crossing. It took me a while to get into it, but once I had a better idea of what was actually important, I found it interesting and noir-y. I liked it, but it just seemed like a good, solid flick, nothing particularly impressive like Blood Simple or No Country for Old Men. There wasn't a great deal of tension in the movie since everything just seemed to happen as it was going to; there were only a few scenes where I truly felt invested in the outcome.

I'm the kind of person that's always going to know the consensus, canonical pick, and I value that you bravely stomp off into the critical jungles without a guidebook and make your own calls.
I will note this: Miller's Crossing rewards rewatch more than almost any other Coen Bros. film. (With the possible exception of Barton Fink, and Lebowski, though that pays back on a different rewatch strategy).
