You've got everything from an episode of Bones, to the Coen Bro's Ladykillers, to Conan Doyle's Red-Headed League.
It's a popular method, at least in media.
Yeah I don’t get hating on Intolerable Cruelty. The only Coen brothers film I truly disliked was Ladykillers. I didn’t really care for Burn After Reading either, but I feel like I probably just need to give it another chance.
My favorite segment of Buster Scrugs was The Gal Who Got Rattled, followed by Near Algodones. I found Meal Ticket too long and too dark. Didn’t care for The Mortal Remains all that much either.
Poor gal, she shouldn’t ought to have done it. Oh my.
>I simply cannot understand people who think like this.
Such people are the subject of several Coen Brother movies, including Fargo, Burn After Reading, Ladykillers, and so on...
(Not that I don't feel for them though. It sucks to lose your savings, even if you did it by being greedy/stupid).
