A Serious Man (2009)


A Serious Man (2009) Trailer

This is the movie of Coen brothers. Similar to Burn After Reading, the movie doesn't lead to anything.

Is it about the life of a man in the 60's. He almost lost his wife, his promotion and he moved to the Jolly Rogers. Life hit the rock bottom. And then all of a sudden, everything seemed fine. His love enemy died, he got promoted and everything returned normal.

Then the twist comes. His doctor called him for a serious discussion of his body check.

The message is brought by the Rabbis: I don't know. Who cares?

Everyone asked him to consult the Rabbi. They know everything and can answer his questions of life. But it turned out that the conversation with the most junior Rabbi is the most spiritual. While the 2nd Rabbi told the story of the teeth, but with no point of direction. And the most senior Rabbi talked about the pop song with the son. It's very ironic.

To be honest, I don't understand the ending of the movie. What is the meaning of the tornando?
