O' Brother Where Art Tho *Soggy Bottom Boys :D

O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a comedy film made by the Coen Brothers. Released in 2000, the film is set in Mississippi during the Great Depression (specifically, 1937). The film is loosely based on the story of Homer’s Odyssey and the 1989 novella A Dozen Tough Jobs by Howard Waldrop, which sets the labors of Hercules in July 1937 in Mississippi. By its very title, the film displays a sly reference to another type of mythmaking: filmmaking, specifically the 1941 satire Sullivan's Travels by Preston Sturges, in which the title character sets out to make a grim, socially conscious film to be called O Brother, Where Art Thou After the privileged director experiences hardships of his own, he decides that comedic films are of more value than self-important dramas. Similarly, the Coen brothers' movie also has the tone and imagery of Depression-era realism interlarded with the comedic element. The film stars George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson, John Goodman, Holly Hunter, and Charles Durning. The American roots soundtrack won a Grammy for Album of the Year in 2001.[

I am the man of constant sorrow I've seen trouble all my days I bid farewell to ol' Kentucky The place where I was born and raised. The place where he was born and raised For six long years I've been in trouble, no pleasure here on earth I've found For in this world, I'm bound to ramble, I have no friends to help me now. He has no friends to help him now It's fair thee well, my old true lover, I never expect to see you again. For I'm bound to ride that Northern Railroad, perhaps I'll die upon this train Perhaps he'll die upon this train You can bury me in some deep valley, For many years where I may lay. And you may learn to love another while I am sleeping in my grave. While he is sleeping in his grave Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger My face you never will see no more But there is one promise that is given, I'll meet you on Gods golden shore He'll meet you on God's golden shore
