Title: Best Mafia Movie Since "Godfather"
Review: There's no use saying Miller's Crossing is better than Godfather. It is more nuanced, with more irony and quirkiness, but simply doesn't have the scope of that classic. Frankly, even though they are both mafia movies, it's rather like comparing apples to oranges... where the Godfather is an epic view from the top, Miller's Crossing is a morality play seen from an outsider's perspective. Where the Godfather is straightforward storytelling, Miller's Crossing has symbolic humor, multiple layers, and an intricate plot.You can watch Miller's Crossing over and again, and take something away from it every time. I would even go so far as to say it is the best thing the Coen brothers (Raising Arizona, Fargo, O Brother...) have ever done. In the simplest terms, it is brilliant. Enjoy.
