Fargo (1996)
When you think about the way the Gundersons are depicted in the Coen Bros. most known movie, it plays at one of the sweetest romances around. We meet them nearly 30 minutes in, as the devoted Norm (John Carroll Lynch) makes breakfast for his very pregnant wife, Marge (Frances McDormand), before she faces the North Dakotan winter. At the story's conclusion, Norm sleepily professes his love for Marge and his excitement to meet their first child. Marge, her eyes a bit widened by the life-changing events that took place between these two scenes, blows off the layers of cynicism and farce evident in a typical Coen Bros. script and earns her badge as their most human and heroic character date. — Arno
