INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS

Ethan Coen

Joel and Ethan Coen (Minneapolis, MN, USA, 1954, 1957), for almost thirty years, have been one of the most important artistic partnerships in the history of cinema. In collaboration and separately, they create, write, produce, direct and edit their films and supervise the music. Occasionally, and only for the sake of convenience, do they divvy up the roles, with Joel directing and Ethan producing. Highly thought of at home and, above all, in Europe (Inside Llewyn Davis won this year’s Grand Jury Prize at Cannes), they have received four Oscars: in 1997 best screenplay for Fargo, and in  2008, with No Country for Old Men, best motion picture, best achievement in directing, and best adapted screenplay.
