Product [edit]
The idea of O Blood brother, Where Art Thousand? arose spontaneously. Piece of work on the script began in Dec 1997, long before the starting time of production, and was at least one-half-written by May 1998. Despite the fact that Ethan Coen described the Odyssey as "one of my favorite storyline schemes", neither of the brothers had read the epic, and they were only familiar with its content through adaptations and numerous references to the Odyssey in popular culture.[21] According to the brothers, Tim Blake Nelson (who has a degree in classics from Brown University)[22] [23] was the only person on the set who had read the Odyssey.[24]
The title of the film is a reference to the 1941 Preston Sturges movie Sullivan's Travels, in which the protagonist (a director) wants to directly a moving-picture show about the Great Depression called O Brother, Where Art Thou? [11] that volition be a "commentary on modern conditions, stark realism, and the issues that face up the average human". Lacking whatsoever experience in this surface area, the director sets out on a journey to experience the human suffering of the average homo but is sabotaged past his anxious studio. The film has some similarity in tone to Sturges's film, including scenes with prison gangs and a black church choir. The prisoners at the picture evidence scene is besides a straight homage to a nearly identical scene in Sturges'due south film.[25]
Joel Coen revealed in a 2000 interview that he traveled to Phoenix to offering the pb role to Clooney. Clooney agreed to do the role immediately, without reading the script. He stated that he liked fifty-fifty the Coens' least successful films.[26] Clooney did non immediately understand his graphic symbol and sent the script to his uncle Jack, who lived in Kentucky, asking him to read the entire script into a tape recorder.[27] Unknown to Clooney, in his recording, Jack, a devout Baptist, omitted all instances of the words "damn" and "hell" from the Coens' script, which only became known to Clooney subsequently the directors pointed this out to him during shooting.[27]
This was the fourth picture show of the brothers in which John Turturro has starred. Other actors in O Brother, Where Art Thousand? who had worked previously with the Coens include John Goodman (three films), Holly Hunter (two), Charles Durning (two) and Michael Badalucco (one).
The Coens used digital color correction to give the movie a sepia-tinted look.[13] Joel stated this was because the bodily gear up was "greener than Ireland".[27] Cinematographer Roger Deakins stated, "Ethan and Joel favored a dry out, dusty Delta await with gilded sunsets. They wanted information technology to look like an old hand-tinted picture, with the intensity of colors dictated by the scene and natural peel tones that were all shades of the rainbow."[28] Initially the crew tried to perform the color correction using a physical procedure, yet later several tries with various chemical processes proved unsatisfactory, it became necessary to perform the procedure digitally.[27]
This was the fifth moving-picture show collaboration betwixt the Coen Brothers and Deakins, and information technology was slated to be shot in Mississippi at a time of year when the foliage, grass, trees, and bushes would be a lush dark-green.[28] It was filmed near locations in Canton, Mississippi, and Florence, South Carolina, in the summertime of 1999.[29] After shooting tests, including film bipack and bleach bypass techniques, Deakins suggested digital mastering be used.[28] Deakins spent eleven weeks fine-tuning the wait, mainly targeting the greens, making them a burnt xanthous and desaturating the overall image in the digital files.[13] This made it the start characteristic film to be entirely color corrected by digital means, narrowly beating Nick Park's Chicken Run.[thirteen]
O Brother, Where Art G? was the first fourth dimension a digital intermediate was used on the entirety of a starting time-run Hollywood motion-picture show that otherwise had very few visual effects. The work was done in Los Angeles by Cinesite using a Spirit DataCine for scanning at 2K resolution, a Pandora MegaDef to adjust the colour, and a Kodak Lightning Two recorder to put out to film.[thirty]
A major theme of the film is the connection betwixt old-time music and political campaigning in the Southern U.South. It makes reference to the traditions, institutions, and campaign practices of bossism and political reform that defined Southern politics in the first half of the 20th century.
The Ku Klux Klan, at the time a political forcefulness of white populism, is depicted burning crosses and engaging in ceremonial trip the light fantastic toe. The character Menelaus "Pappy" O'Daniel, the governor of Mississippi and host of the radio show The Flour 60 minutes, is like in proper noun and demeanor to W. Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel,[31] i-fourth dimension Governor of Texas and later U.Due south. Senator from that state.[32] O'Daniel was in the flour business, and used a backing ring called the Light Crust Doughboys on his radio prove.[33] In one entrada, O'Daniel carried a broom, an often-used entrada device in the reform era, promising to sweep away patronage and corruption.[34] His theme song had the hook, "Delight pass the biscuits, Pappy", emphasizing his connection with flour.[33]
While the moving-picture show borrows from historical politics, differences are obvious between the characters in the film and historical political figures. The O'Daniel of the movie used "Y'all Are My Sunshine" as his theme song (which was originally recorded past vocaliser and Governor of Louisiana James Houston "Jimmie" Davis[35]), and Homer Stokes, as the challenger to the incumbent O'Daniel, portrays himself equally the "reform candidate", using a broom as a prop.
Music [edit]
Music was originally conceived equally a major component of the motion picture, not merely as a background or a support. Producer and musician T Bone Burnett worked with the Coens while the script was still in its working phases and the soundtrack was recorded before filming commenced.[36]
Much of the music used in the motion-picture show is catamenia-specific folk music.[12] The musical selection as well includes religious music, including Primitive Baptist and traditional African American gospel, about notably the Fairfield Iv, an a cappella quartet with a career extending back to 1921 who appear in the soundtrack and as gravediggers towards the pic's end. Selected songs in the film reflect the possible spectrum of musical styles typical of the erstwhile culture of the American South: gospel, delta dejection, land, swing and bluegrass.[24] [37]
The apply of dirges and other macabre songs is a theme that often recurs in Appalachian music[38] ("O Death", "Lonesome Valley", "Affections Band", "I Am Weary") in contrast to brilliant, cheerful songs ("Keep On the Sunny Side", "In the Highways") in other parts of the film.
The voices of the Soggy Bottom Boys were provided by Dan Tyminski (atomic number 82 song on "Human being of Constant Sorrow"), Nashville songwriter Harley Allen, and the Nashville Bluegrass Ring's Pat Enright.[39] The three won a CMA Award for Single of the Year[39] and a Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals, both for the song "Man of Abiding Sorrow".[xiv] Tim Blake Nelson sang the lead vocal on "In the Jailhouse Now".[11]
"Man of Abiding Sorrow" has five variations: two are used in the film, one in the music video, and two in the soundtrack album. Two of the variations feature the verses being sung dorsum-to-back, and the other three variations feature boosted music betwixt each verse.[forty] Though the song received little significant radio airplay, it reached #35 on the U.S. Billboard Hot State Singles & Tracks nautical chart in 2002.[36] [41] The version of "I'll Wing Away" heard in the moving-picture show is performed not by Krauss and Welch (as it is on the CD and concert tour), merely past the Kossoy Sisters with Erik Darling accompanying on long-neck five-cord banjo, recorded in 1956 for the anthology Bowling Green on Tradition Records.[42]

The film premiered at the AFI Film Festival on Oct 19, 2000, and the U.s. on December 22, 2000.[2] Information technology grossed $71,868,327 worldwide off its $26 million budget.[7] [ix]
Disquisitional reception [edit]
Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives information technology a score of 78% based on 154 reviews and an average score of 7.12/10. The consensus reads: "Though not as skilful every bit Coen brothers' classics such as Blood Simple, the delightfully loopy O Brother, Where Fine art Thou? is however a lot of fun."[43] The picture show holds an average score of 69/100 on Metacritic based on xxx reviews.[44]
Roger Ebert gave two and a one-half out of four stars to the picture show, saying all the scenes in the flick were "wonderful in their different ways, and yet I left the motion picture uncertain and unsatisfied".[45]
