I enjoyed that very much and am about to look at what you have to say about other films

I just watched it - thanks for posting - and also subscribed.
Here's what I posted on Youtube:
I found your analysis to be well done, and quite interesting; as I had a distraction or two while watching it, I plan to review it. As you also seem to be, I'm a big "Fargo" fan, but also find the Coen Brothers to be "hit-and-miss" - sometimes within the same film. Such as I discuss and critique films, I tend to stay away from too many sociological implications and what seem to be more sweeping generalizations. I tend to discuss characters and motivations more psychologically. I'm not sure if that's a "hole in my game" or not, but I will rewatch your vid, and may study some of the scholars you mentioned, if just enough to be somewhat conversant with their theories and analyses.

That was really thought-provoking! Thank you for sharing, I loved it!

I just watched your video and I thought it was absolutely tremendous. Immediately subscribed to your channel.
I like how you tie in sociologists and their theories, and delve deep into analyzing the film, eye opening for me. I knew I LIKED and enjoyed watching the film. I also noted their emotional shallowness, and many such obvious points, but the animal layer, the constant eating, and the "waning of affect" from postmodernist over exposure to media.. well I didn't reach to that level of understanding. Maybe if I had a film study group and discussed it and thought about it for a while, but anyway, I really appreciate the video. It's also concise. I can't be spending much more than 10 minutes on such a thing, so it was perfect. Keep it up!

Thanks so much! To be fair, I always build my findings on scholars' previous work. So I didn't personally build the foundation for the whole sociology angle. Most of my videos are 50% adaptations of existing scholarly work, and 50% of me adding on to that work.
Yes, we try to keep our videos within the 10 min mark, although sometimes there is just so much to say that it becomes quite hard to make a concise and well-argued point. I personally see our video essays more as an extensive introduction into a particular subject;)
