This Coen Brothers classic often gets overlooked amidst the rest of the duo's daunting catalog, which is a shame because it would be a shining beacon in almost any other director's portfolio. Tim Robbins, Paul Newman and Jennifer Jason Leigh put on their roaring twenties accents and breathe in boatloads of snappy dialog as the centerpieces of a closed-doors corporate scheme that never seems to quit escalating. Though the climax is a bit of a cop-out, the rest of the film works magnificently as an allegory for the sins of capitalism, the failures of an impartial press and the temptations of glamour we all stare down sooner or later, while managing to be cute, creative and charming the whole way through. Excellent stuff.
