Their lawless years are behind them. Their child-rearing years lay ahead. Newlyweds H.I. and Ed, an ex-con and an ex-cop, just want to start a family but, unable to conceive on their own, decide to abduct a toddler from someone they believe has more than enough. Starring Nicolas Cage & Holly Hunter as the young couple, John Goodman & William Forsythe as H.I.’s old cellmates who’ve escaped prison, and Randall “Tex” Cobb as the larger-than-life biker bounty hunter hot on the trail of the missing baby. In only their second feature film, the Coen Brothers expertly hone their offbeat sense of humor and style with an endlessly quotable comedy classic.
