Barton Fink (1991)
In 1941, New York intellectual playwright Barton Fink comes to Hollywood to write a Wallace Beery wrestling picture. Staying in the eerie Hotel Earle, Barton develops severe writer's block. His neighbor, jovial insurance salesman Charlie Meadows, tries to help, but Barton continues to struggle as a bizarre sequence of events distracts him even further from his task. (imdb)

In many ways, this is the Coen Brothers's first film that displays all their major gifts. It's very funny, visually dazzling and displays an encyclopedic knowledge of old Hollywood.

Probably the Cohen brothers' most obtuse film. It is still very good.
