Fargo

Join Cult Classic Lismore for a screening of the Coen Brothers'  "Fargo" at Lismore's historic Star Court Theatre.

 

In this masterpiece, William H. Macy stars as Jerry, a desperate Minnesota car salesman drowning in debt, who concocts a plan to have his wife kidnapped by two thugs, played by Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare, to extort a hefty ransom from his wealthy father-in-law. 

 

What seems like a straightforward scheme quickly spirals out of control, leading to an unexpected series of deadly events. Frances McDormand delivers an unforgettable performance as Police Chief Marge whose down-to-earth approach and dogged determination make her a formidable force against the criminals. With the Coen Brothers at the helm, "Fargo" is a masterful blend of dark humor, suspense, and the extraordinary performances of its leading actors, crafting a tale that is as unpredictable as it is compelling.
