But it was the outrageously farcical Raising Arizona that announced the Coens' darkly comedic audacity to the world. It wasn't widely seen when released in 1987, but its modest audience was vocally supportive, and this hyperactive comedy has since developed a large and loyal following. It's the story of "Ed" (for Edwina, played by Holly Hunter), a policewoman who falls in love with "Hi" (for H.I. McDonnough, played by Nicolas Cage) while she's taking his mug shots. She's infertile and he's a habitual robber of convenience stores, and their folksy marital bliss depends on settling down with a rug rat. Unable to conceive, they kidnap one of the newsworthy quintuplets born to an unpainted-furniture huckster named Nathan Arizona (Trey Wilson), who quickly hires a Harley-riding mercenary (Randall "Tex" Cobb) to track the baby's whereabouts. What follows is a full-throttle comedy that defies description, fuelled by the Coens' lyrical, redneck dialogue, the manic camerawork of future director Barry Sonnenfeld and some of the most inventively comedic chase scenes ever filmed. Some will dismiss the comedy for being recklessly over-the-top; others will love it for its clever mix of slapstick action, surreal fantasy and homespun family values. One thing's for sure--this is a Coen movie from start to finish, and that makes it undeniably unique. --Jeff Shannon ... less	Postage & Packaging: £1.26 Availability : Usually dispatched within 1-2 business days...	£ 2.49 Visit Shop > amazon marketplace dvd

But the Coens' low-budget film noir debut, Blood Simple (which also launched the career of cinematographer-turned-director Barry Sonnenfeld), certainly got the best of the bargain, a wonderfully less-is-more score highlighted by a compelling solo piano theme. For the Coens' next film, Raising Arizona, a darkly goofy kidnapping-themed comic vehicle for Nicolas Cage and Holly Hunter, Burwell veered bravely into the ozone, mixing heavily Gothic organ, soaring sopranos, bluegrass banjo, whistlers, synths, yodelers, and samples of what sounds like a tin can being kicked down the longest hill in the world into a delightfully heady farrago that recalls Morricone at his most mischievous. --Jerry McCulley ... less	Postage & Packaging: £1.26 Availability : Usually dispatched within 1-2 business days...	£ 40.01 Visit Shop > amazon marketplace music

Time to put away years of crime and steal a kid to raise instead!

Advantages: Acting and direction; comedy of errors
Disadvantages: Doesn't really do anything special

...One of the Coen brothers' earlier films, Raising Arizona features a very young looking Nicolas Cage and Holly Hunter as a quirky couple who decide to steal a kid when they realise they can't have one of their own. The film is littered with subtle little stereotypical references and heavily laden and overacted characters, and this is what makes it magical. There's a heavy element of comedy that masks the seriousness of what they're doing, and it's this tongue in cheek comedy that is a mark of the Coens' films. Cage plays H.I.McDunnough, known as Hi. He's a serial convenience store robber, and is rubbish at it, continually getting caught. Hunter plays Ed (short for Edwina), the police photographer who keeps on taking his photo. When Hi swears to go on the straight and narrow and Ed gets dumped by her fiance, he proposes to her and they...

Review of Raising Arizona (DVD)

Gimme that baby, you wart-hog from hell!

Advantages: Nicolas Cage
Disadvantages: Too surreal for some

...the adoption authorities. Meanwhile, news is spreading that the Arizona family on the other side of town has just had quintuplets, and as Edwina points out "5 kids is just too much for one family to handle", H.I. goes about stealing one so that they can have their perfect family. Although they get the baby, things don't run smoothly as 2 old friends of H.I.'s escape from prison and decide to holdout at the McDonnough family home. On top of this Mr. Arizona hires a maniac, biker bounty hunter to find his missing child. It's quite funny as I had all but forgotten about "Raising Arizona" until I caught and episode of "My Name Is Earl". The similarities between the two are quite amazing; although the plot in Raising Arizona is different to any that you will find in "My Name Is Earl", the characters, location, humour and style of filming are...

Review of Raising Arizona (DVD)

A Jewel In Southern Arizona.

Advantages: Entrance fees reasonable, animal care superb, views magnificent.
Disadvantages: None at all but make sure you are prepared for desert temperatures.

...The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum which is close to the city of Tucson in Southern Arizona is anything but a museum. The very word ?Museum? to me conjures up images of relics from the past displayed in ornate glass cases, which this definitely isn?t. Instead if you visit the place you will be rewarded with a desert zoo experience, which has rightly earned its place in the list of the top ten zoos in the world. Yes there are natural history exhibits, but the botanical gardens and animal enclosures really make this an outdoors experience, with over 85% of the area in the open air. We made our visit to the museum fairly early on in our holiday to Arizona. My son lives only a few minutes drive away, as his house is literally on the edge of the desert. For this reason we thought it would be a perfect introduction to the area, the scenery...
