The Hudsucker Proxy: Listen...or we'll dock ya

Most Cohen Brothers movies are classics, while The Hudsucker Proxy may have flown under the radar and never reached that status. Written in 1985, finished in 1991, and released in 1994, the film was also written by Sam Raimi and turns out to be more pertinent today. The movie was written to depict ordinary men and how they too can become heroes. The film took us back to 1958 New York City and gives us a glimpse of corporate life and how a small-town college graduate can achieve big things.

While this doesn't stand along side The Big Lebowski or Fargo, it deserves its day in the sun.
