\»Inside Llewyn Davis\» follows a week in the life of a young folk singer as he navigates the Greenwich Village folk scene of 1961. Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is at a crossroads. Guitar in tow, huddled against the unforgiving New York winter, he is struggling to make it as a musician against segly insurmountable obstacles some of them of his own making. Living at the mercy of both friends and strangers, scaring up what work he can find, Davis\’ misadventures take him from the basket houses of the Village to an empty Chicago club on an odyssey to audition for music mogul Bud Grossman and back again. Brimming with music performed by Isaac and Justin Timberlake and Carey Mulligan, as well as Marcus Mumford and Punch Brothers, \»Inside Llewyn Davis\» in the tradition of \»O Brother, Where Art Thou\» is infused with the transportive sound of another and place.
Review
\»A great film by two American masters, the Coens have taken a real and place and freely made it their own, drawing on actual persons and events for inspiration, but binding themselves only to their own bountiful imaginations. The result is playful and evocative. There is also the joy of the music itself, exquisitely arranged by T Bone Burnett and sung live on set by the actors themselves. The soundtrack is stupendous.\» —Variety
\»Joel and Ethan Coen\’s wonderful new film is the kind of great work that cuts right through the noise.\» —The New York s
\»Audiences just heard a clean, hard crack: the Coen brothers hit one out of the park. The musical interludes are stunning.\» —The Guardian
