Summary: Coen Brothers Movie Collection Good Set of Films
Comment: The films in this set are very good. We received the boxed set earlier than expected from Amazon and that was great. Would recommend this set of films to anyone who are idols of the Coen Brothers.

Summary: Great collection, great price!
Comment: This is a must have for Coen brothers fans. Awesome collection of their earlier works. The only missing piece is The Big Lebowski. Alas this will be re-released again and again in various collector editions. For the money this collection is your best bet. You will surely watch all of these movies many times and love every minute.

Summary: Warning - Raising Arizona is Small/Letterboxed
Comment: It pains me to give this collection less than 5 stars, because these are unbelievably great films at what has (at times) been a great price. But in presenting "Raising Arizona" to friends and family last night, I was frustrated that I couldn't get the 16:9 picture to fill my HDTV screen. So I fiddled with controls on the DVD player and the TV set itself, continually failing to make the picture large enough (though the aspect ratio was fine). Only later did I find out that this is not a true 16:9 anamorphic transfer, but a "letterboxed" version - meaning you're only going to get a picture about half the size your television is capable of showing. I just checked "Fargo," and it filled the screen nicely (though neither film has a really pristine transfer). Does it sound like I'm nitpicking details? Maybe so - but it's only because these are COEN BROTHERS films, and are so close to being perfect that I'd like the technical side to live up to the films themselves. That being said, this is a terrific collection and highly recommended.
