“That rug really tied the room together.”

If you don’t get that reference, it may be a sign that you should take JDST 390 – Topics in Judaic Studies: Coen Brothers: Genre & Irony.
For more than thirty years, Joel and Ethan Coen have crafted provocative and humorous films that take on the complicated and serious themes of postmodernism. Many of the brothers’ stories and their characters are shaped by the Coen Brothers’ Jewish heritage, so it’s not surprising that elements of Jewish literature and Yiddish humor are sprinkled throughout their films. JDST 390 pays particular attention to the Coen Brothers’ use of genre, specifically: film noir, screwball comedy, and westerns.
Blood Simple, Fargo, Burn After Reading, and of course The Big Lebowski, are just a few of the films students will examine.
JDST 390 is a six-week course offered during Summer Session I.
