Burn After Reading
can be seen on M-Net Movies Showcase DStv Channel 108 at 20h00 tonight (August 15).
Directed by Joel Coen and Ethan Coen in 2008, this comedy
crime movie stars George Clooney, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and Brad
Pitt.
The Coen Brothers, Joel and Ethan, gathered a formidable
cast anchored by Oscar winners George Clooney and Frances McDormand for a
trademark black comedy punctuated by human folly, which inevitably leads to
disaster.
Osbourne Cox, a low-level CIA operative with a drinking
problem, resigns in anger when he is demoted and sets out to write a tell-all
tale as an act of revenge. His story falls into the hands of a pair of lowlifes
who think they can sell it or blackmail the writer, setting off a series of
outrageous events.
