Coen brothers' first film gets Chinese makeover

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then the Coen Brothers may be feeling pretty good right now. Or maybe not; it's hard to tell with them.

This weekend Twin Cities filmgoers can see "A Woman, a Gun, and a Noodle Shop," which is a Chinese remake of the St. Louis Park natives first film "Blood Simple."

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Minnesota Public Radio News arts reporter Euan Kerr, who has seen the new film.
