Look Smart Trivia: The Coen Brothers

4

I may not love every Coen Brothers movie, but I always make a point of seeing them all. If there’s a body of cinematic work in our lifetimes that matches their prolific range and brilliance, don’t tell me, because I won’t have time to watch it. Here are shots from five of my favourites. Be the first to identify them all and you’ll win a $5 Meh coupon. Insert sign-off catchphrase here!

OK, things got a bit weird in yesterday’s Mystery Theme game. First @lehigh posted the answers, nailing the hidden state capital theme, but wasn’t eligible to win. Then @sammydog01 re-posted the answers with credit to @Barney and some cockamamie story about a troubled phone. So @Barney re-re-posted the answers but requested that we give the $5 Meh coupon to @sammydog01 since @Barney herself doesn’t buy stuff from Meh. So here’s what we’re doing: @sammydog01 gets the coupon but should use it to buy @Barney something. Oh, right, the answers:

  1. Charleston (the dance)
  2. Montgomery (Burns)
  3. Dover (as in the white cliffs of)
  4. Salem (cigarettes)
  5. Jackson (Reggie)
    plus 6. Phoenix (posted by @sammydog01)
