The Hudsucker Proxy is a magnificent failure. It failed in that its legacy is not that of being the movie that propelled Joel & Ethan Coen into the mainstream, reintroducing the genre of the early 20th century screwball comedy to the screen. It is magnificent however in that it remains a deeply interesting piece of art. It’s a clichéd kind of story that subverts its own genre’s

happy 2021
