Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) is a car salesman in Minneapolis who has gotten himself into debt and is so desperate for money that he hires two thugs (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his own wife. Jerry will collect the ransom from her wealthy father (Harve Presnell), paying the thugs a small portion and keeping the rest to satisfy his debts.
The scheme collapses when the thugs shoot a state trooper and two innocent bystanders in rural Minnesota, drawing local Police Chief Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) into her first homicide investigation. At first unaware that the homicides are connected to a Minneapolis kidnapping, Chief Gunderson draws closer to Jerry Lundegaard as his situation further unravels.

In this warm-hearted romantic screwball comedy, handsome lothario Art Dodge (ANTONIO BANDERAS) is a good-natured but down-in-the-heels art gallery owner struggling to stay one step ahead of the creditors. Determined to keep his business afloat, Art finds himself reduced to scamming the widowed spouses of recently-deceased men into paying for paintings allegedly purchased by their late better-halves. However, when he makes an ill-timed business call at the home of a reputed mob-boss, Art finds himself chased off the property and into the arms of Betty Kerner (MELANIE GRIFFITH), who happens to have been twice married and divorced from the mob boss' son Gene (DANNY AI ELLO). |
