Is this the best film adaptation of Camus' The Stranger we'll probably ever get? Even if it doesn't follow the plot, the themes are similar.
Also, why is this movie often ignored in the Coens filmography? It's probably one of their best.
How do you pronounce Camus? I said CAME US in front of the librarian two weeks ago and she snickered at me. When I walked out the exit she was laughing with two other librarians and they were looking at me.

I remember when I was about 14 or 15 years old in that sort of phase and I asked for where I could find The Stranger by Albert Cameus at one of the guys at the local Barnes & Noble. The guy wasn't rude but he said "The Stranger by Kah-moo?" and then he directed it to me.
I read it a bunch of times over the next year or so. The whole chapter where Meursault smokes a cigarette on his balcony while watching the passers-by below still sticks in my mind more than anything else.

MONK PLAYING THE BIG SHOT LAWYER WAS THE BEST PERFORMANCE
GREAT MOVIE BUT PACED FOR ADULTS, CAPESHITTERS WOULD TEXT ALL THE WAY THROUGH IT
The scene wherehis brother-in-law punches him during the trialeffected me more than it should.
"What kind of man are you?!". I ask myself that almost everyday, despite how fedora it sounds.

The part where Jame Gandolfini's wife appears at Billy Bob's door in the funeral shroud talking to him about the UFO experience they had chilled me to the fucking bone. That actress had the perfect creepy look on her face during the whole thing.
