I'm curious why you think it is.  Though there is that common Cohen brothers
vibe that EVERYONE is a fuckup, which is also something of a UA vibe.

I'm with Greg on this one. I'm a big Coen fan, and I think their films are
often very appropriate for UA, but OH BROTHER is probably the least UA-able
of their movies.

(One of these days, I should do that 'Coen=UA' essay that examines each
movie as game fodder. Maybe when my workload magically evaporates...)
