Thank for this beautiful review. I loved this film, but your review on the spiritual poetry of it helped me to appreciate it, and the directors, even more.

An excellent spiritual analysis for an excellent film is what I found here. My country is Greece and I feel happy you mentioned the pregnant policewoman in Fargo, I always was moved with the relationship of total love she had with her "naif" husband.
Anyway I believe both hands form an armful but mercy is written on the right one like "love" was written on the right feast of Robert Mitchum in "The night of the hunter".
Thank you I really felt your article because I recently had a big loss in my life.
