November 1954,
Minneapolis,
Minnesota,
USA
With movies like
The Big Lebowski,
Fargo, Barton Fink, Rasing Arizona and Miller´s Crossing, Joel and his brother Ethan have made their impact on
Hollywood. Joel is always credited as the
director, but the truth is that the brothers always direct/write/produce together. So this is not to be taken too seriously.
Joel likes to cast:
Steve Buscemi, John Goodman, Jon Polito, John Turturro, and Frances McDormand (Joel´s wife, the policewoman in
Fargo). Joel just adopted a little baby named Pedro.
