Production [edit]

The idea of O Blood brother, Where Art Chiliad? arose spontaneously. Work on the script began in December 1997, long before the start of product, and was at least one-half-written by May 1998. Despite the fact that Ethan Coen described the Odyssey as "1 of my favorite storyline schemes", neither of the brothers had read the ballsy, and they were simply familiar with its content through adaptations and numerous references to the Odyssey in pop culture.[21] According to the brothers, Tim Blake Nelson (who has a caste in classics from Brown University)[22] [23] was the but person on the set who had read the Odyssey.[24]

The title of the film is a reference to the 1941 Preston Sturges pic Sullivan's Travels, in which the protagonist (a director) wants to direct a flick about the Peachy Depression called O Blood brother, Where Art Yard? [11] that volition be a "commentary on modern conditions, stark realism, and the issues that confront the average man". Lacking any feel in this area, the manager sets out on a journeying to experience the human suffering of the average man but is sabotaged by his anxious studio. The film has some similarity in tone to Sturges's film, including scenes with prison house gangs and a black church building choir. The prisoners at the film show scene is likewise a straight homage to a nearly identical scene in Sturges'southward film.[25]

Joel Coen revealed in a 2000 interview that he traveled to Phoenix to offer the lead part to Clooney. Clooney agreed to practice the role immediately, without reading the script. He stated that he liked fifty-fifty the Coens' least successful films.[26] Clooney did non immediately empathise his character and sent the script to his uncle Jack, who lived in Kentucky, asking 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 merely became known to Clooney subsequently the directors pointed this out to him during shooting.[27]

This was the quaternary film 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 (three films), Holly Hunter (two), Charles Durning (two) and Michael Badalucco (1).

The Coens used digital color correction to give the film a sepia-tinted look.[xiii] Joel stated this was because the actual set was "greener than Ireland".[27] Cinematographer Roger Deakins stated, "Ethan and Joel favored a dry out, dusty Delta look with golden sunsets. They wanted it to look like an sometime mitt-tinted picture, with the intensity of colors dictated by the scene and natural peel tones that were all shades of the rainbow."[28] Initially the crew tried to perform the color correction using a physical process, however after 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 year when the foliage, grass, trees, and bushes would exist a lush green.[28] It was filmed near locations in Canton, Mississippi, and Florence, South Carolina, in the summertime of 1999.[29] After shooting tests, including motion picture bipack and bleach featherbed techniques, Deakins suggested digital mastering exist used.[28] Deakins spent 11 weeks fine-tuning the look, mainly targeting the greens, making them a burnt yellowish and desaturating the overall image in the digital files.[13] This made it the kickoff feature moving picture to exist entirely color corrected by digital means, narrowly beating Nick Park's Chicken Run.[13]

O Brother, Where Art Thou? was the first fourth dimension a digital intermediate was used on the entirety of a outset-run Hollywood picture that otherwise had very few visual furnishings. The piece of work was done in Los Angeles past Cinesite using a Spirit DataCine for scanning at 2K resolution, a Pandora MegaDef to adjust the color, and a Kodak Lightning II recorder to put out to moving picture.[30]

A major theme of the film is the connection betwixt quondam-time music and political campaigning in the Southern U.S. It makes reference to the traditions, institutions, and entrada practices of bossism and political reform that defined Southern politics in the start half of the 20th century.

The Ku Klux Klan, at the fourth dimension 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 60 minutes, is similar in name and demeanor to W. Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel,[31] sometime Governor of Texas and later U.Due south. Senator from that state.[32] O'Daniel was in the flour business concern, and used a backing ring called the Calorie-free Crust Doughboys on his radio show.[33] In i campaign, O'Daniel carried a broom, an oft-used campaign device in the reform era, promising to sweep away patronage and abuse.[34] His theme song had the hook, "Please pass the biscuits, Pappy", emphasizing his connection with flour.[33]

While the film borrows from historical politics, differences are obvious between the characters in the film and historical political figures. The O'Daniel of the film used "You lot Are My Sunshine" every bit his theme vocal (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 as a prop.

Music [edit]

Music was originally conceived as a major component of the film, not simply every bit a background or a back up. Producer and musician T Bone Burnett worked with the Coens while the script was all the same in its working phases and the soundtrack was recorded before filming commenced.[36]

Much of the music used in the picture show is menstruation-specific folk music.[12] The musical selection also includes religious music, including Archaic Baptist and traditional African American gospel, most notably the Fairfield Four, an a cappella quartet with a career extending back to 1921 who appear in the soundtrack and as gravediggers towards the motion-picture show'southward end. Selected songs in the film reflect the possible spectrum of musical styles typical of the former culture of the American South: gospel, delta blues, land, swing and bluegrass.[24] [37]

The use of dirges and other macabre songs is a theme that frequently recurs in Appalachian music[38] ("O Death", "Lonesome Valley", "Angel Band", "I Am Weary") in contrast to bright, cheerful songs ("Continue On the Sunny Side", "In the Highways") in other parts of the movie.

The voices of the Soggy Bottom Boys were provided past Dan Tyminski (lead vocal on "Man of Constant Sorrow"), Nashville songwriter Harley Allen, and the Nashville Bluegrass Band's Pat Enright.[39] The 3 won a CMA Award for Single of the Yr[39] and a Grammy Honour for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals, both for the song "Man of Constant Sorrow".[14] Tim Blake Nelson sang the atomic number 82 vocal on "In the Jailhouse Now".[xi]

"Man of Abiding Sorrow" has five variations: two are used in the moving-picture show, 1 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 characteristic additional music between each poesy.[forty] Though the song received trivial pregnant radio airplay, it reached #35 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 2002.[36] [41] The version of "I'll Fly Away" heard in the film is performed not past Krauss and Welch (every bit it is on the CD and concert tour), but past the Kossoy Sisters with Erik Darling accompanying on long-neck v-cord banjo, recorded in 1956 for the album Bowling Green on Tradition Records.[42]

Release [edit]

The film premiered at the AFI Film Festival on October 19, 2000, and the United States on December 22, 2000.[2] It grossed $71,868,327 worldwide off its $26 million budget.[7] [ix]

Disquisitional reception [edit]

Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives information technology a score of 78% based on 154 reviews and an average score of 7.12/ten. The consensus reads: "Though not as skilful as Coen brothers' classics such every bit Blood Simple, the delightfully loopy O Brother, Where Art One thousand? is notwithstanding a lot of fun."[43] The moving picture holds an boilerplate score of 69/100 on Metacritic based on 30 reviews.[44]

Roger Ebert gave two and a half out of 4 stars to the motion picture, saying all the scenes in the film were "wonderful in their different means, and yet I left the movie uncertain and unsatisfied".[45]

The film was selected into the chief contest of the 2000 Cannes Film Festival.[8]

Soggy Bottom Boys [edit]

The Soggy Bottom Boys are the fictional musical group that the master characters class to serve as accompaniment for the film. It has been suggested that the name is in homage to the Foggy Mountain Boys, a bluegrass band led past Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs.[49] In the pic, the songs credited to the band are lip-synched past the actors, except that Tim Blake Nelson does sing his own vocals on "In the Jailhouse At present".

The band's striking single is Dick Burnett's "Man of Abiding Sorrow", a song that had enjoyed much success prior to the movie's release.[50] After the film's release, the fictitious band became so popular that the country and folk musicians who were dubbed into the flick got together and performed the music from the picture in a Down from the Mount concert tour, which was filmed for TV and DVD.[12] This included Ralph Stanley, John Hartford, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Chris Sharp, Stun Seymour, Dan Tyminski and others.
