In their lighter films, e.g., The Hudsucker Proxy, the plot is unleashed by the suicide of Waring Hudsucker, or in The Ladykillers all of the main characters die in an attempt to dispose of a body. In some of their more graphic films, e.g., Fargo, most of the main characters die or are assaulted, all of which is portrayed onscreen; in one particularly graphic scene a ...
