About this episode

On this episode of The Cine-Files, Steve Morris and John Rocha continue their Season of the Coen Brothers with Part 2 of their deep dive and exploration of MILLER'S CROSSING. This Irish gangster classic from 1990 is considered by many, including the Coens, to be one of their greatest films. Set in the 1920s this film features a stacked cast including Gabriel Byrne, Albert Finney, Marca Gay Harden, John Torturro, Steve Buscemi, J.E. Freeman and Jon Polito. Steve and John go thru the movie scene by scene to break down the direction, acting, story beats, score, action sequences and more.
