I’d love to rewatch this at some point tho to get a proper feel for it and not at 2 am when everyone is trying to sleep.

  To be honest what resonated most with me is how even though life has given Llewyn a nearly perpetual shit-kicking, he would rather stick to his guns than give in to philosophical suicide. After sitting in silence as the credits rolled, I was feeling a bit short changed (in typical Coen bros fashion) but I finished…
