Inside Llewyn Davis

Inside Llewyn Davis

Directed by Joel Coen and Ethan Coen • 2013 • United States
Starring Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Justin Timberlake

The visionary chroniclers of eccentric Americana Joel and Ethan Coen present one of their greatest creations in Llewyn Davis, a singer barely eking out a living on the peripheries of the flourishing Greenwich Village folk scene of the early sixties. As embodied by Oscar Isaac in a revelatory performance, Llewyn (loosely modeled on the Village folk legend Dave Van Ronk) is extraordinarily talented but also irascible, rude, and self-defeating. His circular odyssey through an unforgiving winter cityscape, evocatively captured by cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel, is realized with poignant humor and the occasional surreal touch. Featuring a folk soundtrack curated by T Bone Burnett, INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS reminds us that in the Coens’ world, history isn’t necessarily written by the winners.
