The Man Who Wasn't There stars Billy Bob Thornton as a laconic, chain-smoking barber who tries to invest in dry cleaning, but his plan goes terribly wrong. That's all I can say about the plot otherwise the film would be spoiled.
From the start of this film the viewer is guessing as to what happens next, an excellent film with superb cinematography in black and white! I found this film completely unpredictable as with each of the various different crimes committed you think you know what is going to happen next, but the opposite happens. The acting is excellent from everybody in it.
While this film is a bit slow it's also very funny. It's probably the Coens' best film since Fargo, so don't miss it.
