Videc reviews by Jack e. Wilkinson United press International Barton Fink 1991. Fox video. Rated r. Joel and Ethan coens Quirky award winning satire tells of a shy Broadway playwright lured to Hollywood with disastrous results. On his first Day with Capitol pictures Fink John Turturro serious writer who wants to do something for the common Man is handed a Wallace Beery wrestling movie to script and immediately lapses into a humongous writers Block. As Fink tries to climb out of his mental Quicksand the Story beautifully filmed in Rich �?T40s atmosphere and bordering on the surreal unfolds slowly thoughtfully at times mesmerizing dissolving surprisingly into violence. While Fink spends much of his time staring at his typewriter and the peeling wallpaper in his hotel room fascinating characters troop through his new world including a boisterous somewhat mysterious next door neighbor John Goodman an ego maniacal studio Boss Oscar nominated Michael Lerner Southern tinted accommodating a a Secretary Judy Davis and a Faulkner esque writer turned Boozer John Mahoney.
