The Butcher Shop

The Beefers are back and are gonna make a withdrawal from the bank of paranoia and deception with these two features. Iris and Gary are joined by Mike White of The Projection Booth to discuss two films about finding large sums of dirty money and the consequences of taking it. In A Simple Plan, two brothers and their buddy find a duffle bag full of loot whilst on a hunt. Mistrust, desperation and death all become a factor in the gem starring Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton and some other greats in this underseen Sam Raimi classic. Then, The Coen Brothers give us one of their best efforts with Josh Brolin being persued by a most menacing Javier Bardem over a large sum of money and just general integrity. You know because a psychopath has to have integrity. Tommy Lee Jones, Woody Harrelson and some other wonderful actors star in No Country For Old Men.
