Product [edit]

The idea of O Brother, Where Art Thou? arose spontaneously. Work on the script began in December 1997, long before the start of production, and was at least half-written by May 1998. Despite the fact that Ethan Coen described the Odyssey as "one of my favorite storyline schemes", neither of the brothers had read the epic, and they were only familiar with its content through adaptations and numerous references to the Odyssey in pop culture.^[21] Co-ordinate to the brothers, Tim Blake Nelson (who has a caste in classics from Brown University)^{[22] [23]} was the only person on the ready who had read the Odyssey.^[24]

The title of the film is a reference to the 1941 Preston Sturges flick Sullivan'due south Travels, in which the protagonist (a managing director) wants to directly a movie about the Keen Depression called O Brother, Where Fine art Thousand? ^[11] that will exist a "commentary on modern conditions, stark realism, and the issues that face the average man". Lacking whatever experience in this area, the director sets out on a journey to feel the human being suffering of the average human simply is sabotaged by his anxious studio. The picture has some similarity in tone to Sturges'southward film, including scenes with prison gangs and a black church choir. The prisoners at the picture show scene is as well a direct homage to a well-nigh identical scene in Sturges's film.^[25]

Joel Coen revealed in a 2000 interview that he traveled to Phoenix to offer the atomic number 82 function to Clooney. Clooney agreed to practise the role immediately, without reading the script. He stated that he liked even the Coens' least successful films.^[26] Clooney did non immediately understand his graphic symbol and sent the script to his uncle Jack, who lived in Kentucky, request him to read the entire script into a tape 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 afterward the directors pointed this out to him during shooting.^[27]

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

The Coens used digital color correction to requite the film a sepia-tinted await.^[xiii] Joel stated this was because the actual fix was "greener than Republic of ireland".^[27] Cinematographer Roger Deakins stated, "Ethan and Joel favored a dry, dusty Delta look with golden sunsets. They wanted it to look like an old hand-tinted picture show, with the intensity of colors dictated by the scene and natural skin tones that were all shades of the rainbow."^[28] Initially the crew tried to perform the color correction using a physical process, however afterward several tries with various chemical processes proved unsatisfactory, it became necessary to perform the process digitally.^[27]

This was the fifth film collaboration between the Coen Brothers and Deakins, and it was slated to be shot in Mississippi at a time of twelvemonth when the leaf, grass, trees, and bushes would be a lush green.^[28] It was filmed well-nigh locations in Canton, Mississippi, and Florence, South Carolina, in the summer of 1999.^[29] After shooting tests, including motion picture bipack and bleach bypass techniques, Deakins suggested digital mastering be used.^[28] Deakins spent 11 weeks fine-tuning the expect, mainly targeting the greens, making them a burnt xanthous and desaturating the overall epitome in the digital files.^[xiii] This made it the showtime feature motion-picture show to be entirely color corrected by digital ways, narrowly beating Nick Park'southward Chicken Run.^[13]

O Blood brother, Where Fine art Grand? was the first fourth dimension a digital intermediate was used on the entirety of a kickoff-run Hollywood film that otherwise had very few visual furnishings. The piece of work was done in Los Angeles by Cinesite using a Spirit DataCine for scanning at 2K resolution, a Pandora MegaDef to arrange the color, and a Kodak Lightning II recorder to put out to picture.^[30]

A major theme of the film is the connexion between one-time-time music and political campaigning 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 start half of the 20th century.

The Ku Klux Klan, at the time a political force of white populism, is depicted burning crosses and engaging in ceremonial dance. The character Menelaus "Pappy" O'Daniel, the governor of Mississippi and host of the radio show The Flour Hr, is similar in name and demeanor to W. Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel,^[31] one-time Governor of Texas and later U.S. Senator from that state.^[32] O'Daniel was in the flour business organization, and used a backing band called the Light Crust Doughboys on his radio show.^[33] In one campaign, O'Daniel carried a broom, an ofttimes-used campaign device in the reform era, promising to sweep abroad patronage and corruption.^[34] His theme song had the claw, "Please pass the biscuits, Pappy", emphasizing his connectedness with flour.^[33]

While the picture show borrows from historical politics, differences are obvious between the characters in the film and historical political figures. The O'Daniel of the moving-picture show used "You Are My Sunshine" as his theme song (which was originally recorded by vocalizer 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 equally a prop.

Music [edit]

Music was originally conceived as a major component of the pic, non simply every bit a background or a back up. Producer and musician T Bone Burnett worked with the Coens while the script was still in its working phases and the soundtrack was recorded earlier filming commenced.^[36]

Much of the music used in the motion picture is period-specific folk music.^[12] The musical pick besides includes religious music, including Primitive Baptist and traditional African American gospel, most notably the Fairfield Iv, an a cappella quartet with a career extending back to 1921 who announced in the soundtrack and every bit gravediggers towards the film's end. Selected songs in the moving picture reverberate the possible spectrum of musical styles typical of the old civilization of the American South: gospel, delta dejection, country, swing and bluegrass.^{[24] [37]}

The employ of dirges and other macabre songs is a theme that frequently recurs in Appalachian music^[38] ("O Death", "Lonesome Valley", "Angel Ring", "I Am Weary") in contrast to bright, cheerful songs ("Keep 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 (lead song on "Man of Constant Sorrow"), Nashville songwriter Harley Allen, and the Nashville Bluegrass Band's Pat Enright.^[39] The three won a CMA Honour for Single of the Year^[39] and a Grammy Honor for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals, both for the song "Man of Constant Sorrow".^[14] Tim Blake Nelson sang the lead vocal on "In the Jailhouse Now".^[11]

"Man of Abiding Sorrow" has five variations: two are used in the motion picture, i in the music video, and two in the soundtrack album. Two of the variations feature the verses being sung back-to-back, and the other three variations feature additional music between each poesy.^[40] Though the vocal received petty significant radio airplay, it reached #35 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 2002.^{[36] [41]} The version of "I'll Wing Abroad" heard in the moving picture is performed not by Krauss and Welch (as it is on the CD and concert bout), only 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 19, 2000, and the United states of america on Dec 22, 2000.^[2] It grossed $71,868,327 worldwide off its $26 million budget.^{[7] [nine]}

Critical reception [edit]

Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives it a score of 78% based on 154 reviews and an average score of seven.12/10. The consensus reads: "Though non every bit good every bit Coen brothers' classics such as Blood Uncomplicated, the delightfully loopy O Blood brother, Where Art Thou? 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 2 and a half out of 4 stars to the picture, saying all the scenes in the movie were "wonderful in their dissimilar ways, and yet I left the movie uncertain and unsatisfied".^[45]

Soggy Bottom Boys [edit]

The Soggy Bottom Boys are the fictional musical group that the principal characters form to serve as accessory for the film. Information technology has been suggested that the name is in homage to the Foggy Mountain Boys, a bluegrass band led by Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs.^[49] In the moving-picture show, the songs credited to the band are lip-synched by the actors, except that Tim Blake Nelson does sing his ain vocals on "In the Jailhouse Now".

The band'due south hit single is Dick Burnett's "Man of Constant Sorrow", a vocal that had enjoyed much success prior to the film'due south release.^[l] Afterward the film's release, the fictitious band became and then pop that the country and folk musicians who were dubbed into the film got together and performed the music from the film in a Downwards from the Mount concert bout, which was filmed for Goggle box and DVD.^[12] This included Ralph Stanley, John Hartford, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Chris Abrupt, Stun Seymour, Dan Tyminski and others.
