Frances McDormand as Abby

I guess this won't be the last time I draw Frances McDormand since she turns up in at least six Coen Brother's films. This is her first time working with them - and their first film - as Abby in Blood Simple.

Scarlett Johansson as Birdy

Another one from The Man Who Wasn't There, that's why they're black and white. This time it's Scarlett Johansson as Birdy.

The Pansy

The wonderful Jon Polito as Creighton Jolliver in The Man Who Wasn't There. The Coen's use Polito a number of times, at least 4 and I'm sure they would've continued using him had he not sadly passed away.

Dan Hedaya as Marty

Dan Hedaya as Marty in Blood Simple, the Coen Brother's very first film. Great way to start your career. Actually the character's name is Julien Marty but he's only ever referred to as Marty.Is it just me or would Dan Hedaya make a great Richard Nixon? Maybe it was all the sweating he was doing in the film.

The Dane

J E Freeman as Eddie Dane Eddie Dane from Miller's Crossing. Absolute class film. One of the best films you're ever likely to watch. That said, I don't think I'd even be able to rate it in my top 5 favourite Coen Brother films. That's not dissing the film, that's just how good a filmography those guys have.

The Big Lebowski

That's right, Jeff Bridges isn't The Big Lebowski - he's The Dude (etc). The Big Lebowski is the other Lebowski, the apparently rich Lebowski played by David Huddleston.Here he is about to prove he is in fact a cripple even though Walter's "seen a lot of spinals" and has "never been more certain of anything in his f•••ing life".

Steve Buscemi - Donny

Catherine doesn't like this one so much, and really, it's Steve Buscemi, I probly shld've gone a lot harder. Also it's odd that Donny would be cheerful like this, normally he has a confused look on his face, doesn't really know what's going on and being told to shut the f••• up.

This is taken from one of the first shots we see of him, right at the beginning of the film where he gets a strike. From there it's all downhill.

Judith Gopnick

What I like about Judith from A Serious Man is how unaware she seems to be that she's just shattered her husband Larry's world, to the point where she gets annoyed and impatient with him. She may not be the most likeable character but she's certainly entertaining (well not for Larry).There's a temptation to draw her much 'cleaner' since she's always quite together and well kempt but I think the roughness echoes the chaos she's bringing to Larry's life (also I'm trying to keep my drawings as loose and lively as I can, so there's also that...).

Shot Man

This guy only turns up for a moment and then gets shot. He's showing Anton Chigurh the crime scene and of course is shot because he saw his face.

Anne Nirdlinger

Anne Nirdlinger is the wife of Big Dave in The Man Who Wasn't There. Someone told me the way to watch TMWWT is to think of Ed Crane as an alien who's visiting and observing humanity. It explains why he's so aloof and unbothered by some of the crappy things that happen to him. It also explains why the alien ship turns up sporadically during the film.

Anne is the only one that mentions them though. Anyway regardless of all that, I just like her spooky and kind of gothic appearance.

Dissaproving Painting

I'm pretty sure this will be the most obscure caricature of this entire thing. It's from a painting that only appears for a second, if that, in The Man Who Wasn't There. It's above the bed at the hotel Freddy Riedenschneiner's staying at. Cool face though.
