Prior to this morning, all we knew about Joel and Ethan Coen's new movie A Serious Man was that it's set in late '60s Minnesota and stars little-known actor Michael Stuhlbarg as a Jewish academic with marital and spiritual troubles. (Oh, and that we'll get to see it long before you do, since it'll be at the Toronto FIlm Festival in September, prior to its October opening. Nyah.) Well, now we know a little more… sort of. The trailer for A Serious Man was released late last night and it's a strange little number, looking like a combination of Barton Fink and The Man Who Wasn't There, with some of the slapstick violence of Raising Arizona. Definitely the Coens exploring their own headspace again. Check it out:
