[A] superbly crafted comedy.

...One of the most brilliant screen mixes of comedy and drama in history...

Rating: 5/5 --
Not remotely a defense of junk, but it does respect comedy as a force for escapism.

...Superbly played and paced, and features a gallery of eccentric supporting characters...

Rating: 4/5 --
It's a great comedy, with a message that works in context, the flophouses of life's downside contrasting with Hollywood's absurd hedonism.

Product Description:
Frustrated film director Sullivan (Joel McCrea) is fed up with serving out easily digestible but ultimately meaningless chunks of comedy for the studios. He decides to set off across America to rediscover the daily lives of the Joe Lunchpails as research for his socially responsible next film, O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU' Giving up all his unnecessaries, he begins his cross-country road trip in hobo's clothes with barely a dime in his pocket to regain his focus.
