These are all the films of the Coen Brothers, Ethan and Joel, that made the top 1000 in our 2011 update of the Top Ranked 1000 Films on the Net, all polls. They usually share both directing and screenwriting duties, so I lumped them all together here, and they had 10 titles make the top 1000 in all.



Frances McDormand won a best actress

1. Fargo (1996) #49

2. No Country for Old Men (2007) #133 [AA]

3. Big Lebowski, The (1998) #260

4. Barton Fink (1991) #467

5. Raising Arizona (1987) #626

6. Serious Man, A (2009) #627

7. Miller's Crossing (1990) #673

8. Blood Simple (1984) #717

9. True Grit (2010) #889

10. O Brother, Where Art Thou (2000) #958



My favorite Coen Brothers film remains one of the funniest ever made, Raising Arizona. This is also one of the fastest-paced films ever.
