The question is, why should I not love it so much?

Yeah, why does everyone love fargo so much?It was okay, but The Big lebowskie was better, and I know I will get crap for it, but I think even the Hudsucker Proxy was better as far as Coen brothers films go, and that movie gets no love!

It is just a media-created legend; the real story has nothing to do with the movie, and is actually kinda sad: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takako_...(office_worker)
The Coens' films are always memorable for their weird and sublime little touches. Fargo actually credits Prince as a cast member, when it is obviously not him, but rather a Minnesota in-joke.

It's a fantastic movie, but I missed out on the best part. Some years ago a special edition was released, that contained the most awesome of xmas gifts, a snow globe that had the foot sticking out of the wood chipper. Thinking I had time to pick it up when it went on sale I waited, and never saw it again.

It's funny what urban legends pop up from movies. On topic, the wood chipper scene always made me a shudder a bit. Still a good movie in my book.

Fargo is a strange but very enjoyable movie. It's not one I go out of my way to see, but still enjoy if it's on.

"You're such a super-lady!" is probably the most-oft quoted bit of movie dialogue between me and my friends the last ten years. It's so very, very perfect for almost any occasion when said enthusiastically enough.

I loved his movie. But I went so long without seeing it, which I truly regretted. Better late than never though.

The one real downside to the film is after it came out people thought us Minnesota folk talked like that. Only a small few actually do.

Every time I see a wood chipper I think of Steve Buscemi because of this movie.
