14: Guiding Lights

To the White Sea

Today we read pages 27-28 and refract the screenplay's beams through a prism called Guiding Lights. Coens characters who are struggling to find their bearings look to maps, mathematics, icons, and guidebooks. Do they get the guidance they seek or are they led down a primrose path?
Coens Covered: Barton Fink, Tuileries (short), World Cinema (short), A Serious Man
Plus: Climates, Crumb, Dick Tracy TV Specials
