Sep 24, 2011 · ). So, today we’ll take a look at some of the best songs that are used in the duo’s movies. 10 – “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” – Fargo. The Coen’s big breakthrough, Fargo, didn’t...
Feb 10, 2016 · What makes the Coen brothers' movies so great — and hard to classify. The duo's latest film, Hail, Caesar!, captures the essence of why their work is so consistently delightful. By Peter ...
Aug 8, 2021 · Oh Brother Where Art Thou – ‘Man of Constant Sorrow’. Nobody else but the Coen brothers could make a success of such a preposterous premise as their film Oh Brother Where Art Thou. In it, the Coen brothers transplanted Homer’s Odyssey and set it in depression-era America.

- ‘It’s The Same Old Song’ by The Four Tops from Blood Simple. Appropriately enough, an actual jukebox is showcased in the Coen brothers’ debut film, Blood Simple, though in a somewhat more flamboyant a manner than what we’ve now come to expect from the duo’s more overtly dramatic features.
- ‘Danny Boy’ by Frank Patterson from Miller’s Crossing. The Coens have made it a signature of their period pieces to feature era-appropriate tunes alongside Carter Burwell’s traditional scores.
- ‘Let’s Find Each Other Tonight’ by José Feliciano from Fargo. Befitting their liberal approach to genre, many of the Coens’ most indelible musical moments are likewise adventurous in spirit.

- “Way Out There” by Carter Burwell from Raising Arizona. Maybe the key to a great Nicolas Cage movie is yodeling? I mean, sure, there’s no yodeling in Leaving Las Vegas, Con Air, Bringing Out the Dead, Adaptation., The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, or Kick-Ass, but there is in Raising Arizona, and Raising Arizona might be his best movie, so…The point I’m trying to make is, why haven’t the Coen Brothers made another film with Nicolas Cage?
- “Danny Boy” by Frank Patterson from Miller’s Crossing. Please note the name of this video: “You Can’t Hit Albert Finney.” That is so true, especially when Irish folk songs are playing.
- Howling Fat Men from Barton Fink. The soundtracks to Barton Fink (my favorite Coen Brothers movie) and Fargo were released at the same time, on the same day, on the same disc.
- “Let’s Find Each Other Tonight” by José Feliciano from Fargo. Like Barton Fink, the musical moments in Fargo are few and far between. There’s Chuck Mangione’s “Feels So Good,” a song that will forever be associated with King of the Hill, and not much else, outside of José Feliciano’s live performance of “Let’s Find Each Other Tonight” that plays during Carl’s awkward dinner with an escort.
Feb 23, 2016 · Written By Eric Eisner. The Coen Brothers, more than many directors, use their soundtracks to advance the themes of their films. Folk music, in both O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Inside Llewyn Davis, is essential to understanding the movie.
Dec 31, 2013 · Both the Coens and Carter Burwell showed their range in "Raising Arizona," with the Coens following up their dark, draining debut "Blood Simple" with an eccentric, lighthearted comedy, with Burwell...
