Hello pals! Our Series of Coen-cidences continues this week with a trip to China. That's right, the Coen influence knowns no international limits. In 2009, Zhang Yimou remade Blood Simple setting it in a much different time and locale, but still tapping into the same primal themes in A Woman, A Gun, and a Noodle Shop. We talk adaptation, translation, the Coen Brothers and more in this week's show. Join us now!
