Now wait just a gol darned minute...

I dunno if Tin is exaggerating for effect or not. Could be ;-) I know Tin does tend yo puch your buttons.

I can say for certain that I saw A Serious Man at Landmark Theater in Indianapolis, on a week night (Monday or Tuesday), and there must have been at least 30 people in the audience - it was in one of their larger auditoriums. And yes, people laughed out loud. And I presume the audience were both Jewish and gentile. It was predominantly a middle class crowd, but there was everyone from twenty-somethings to senior citizens. More middle American you cannot get. In fact, the Coens are very popular amongst the Indy arty crowd.

I'm sure other people share your disdain for the movie, but they weren't in evidence the particular night I saw it.

You appear to hold the minority opinion here too.

For the record, I can't agree with your first paragraph or your assesment of Burn After Reading either. But this is really enough...it's OK...I loathe Jaws despite all its success and popularity. But I try not to beat people up over it.
