Nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture, and winner of two (Actress and Original Screenplay) this "darkly amusing" (Los Angeles Times) thriller combines a "first-rate cast" (Variety) "a dazzling mix of mirth and malice" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone) and an unusual kidnapping plot that unravels the Midwest like never before. Jerry (William H. Macy) a small Minnesota town car salesman, is bursting at the seams with debt...but he's got a plan. He's gonna hire two thugs (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife in a scheme to collect a hefty ransom from his wealthy father-in-law. It's gonna be a snap and nobody's gonna get hurt...until people start dying. Enter Police Chief Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand), a coffee-drinking, parka-wearing - and extremely pregnant - investigator who'll stop at nothing to get her man. And if you think her small-time investigative skills will give the crooks a run for their ransom...you betcha!

Fargo
From the haunting beauty of the opening credits, this movie will lead you a dance through places you wouldn't dream of. Funny and bloody by turns, this Cohen brothers examination of modern society and the human condition within it, is ultimately a moving celebration of mankind's uniqueness, warts and all. But seeing it once is not enough - buy the disc, own it!
